Under the leadership of general manager Nick Caserio, the Houston Texans have quickly gone from worst to first and are now the team to beat. They were the first NFL team to kick off training camp with an on-field workout on Thursday, signaling the start of a new season after their successful 2023 campaign that saw them reclaim the AFC South division title and secure a playoff spot. Caserio and head coach DeMeco Ryans are focused on ensuring that the team does not become complacent after their achievements last season, emphasizing the need to start fresh and build on their success. Quarterback C.J. Stroud, the reigning NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year, is already generating buzz as an MVP candidate in his second year with the Texans. The Texans made key acquisitions in the offseason, bringing in players like wide receiver Stefon Diggs, running back Joe Mixon, and defensive end Danielle Hunter to strengthen the team. As they prepare to kick off the preseason against the Chicago Bears in Canton, Ohio, Stroud is excited about the potential of the team and the new offensive weapons at his disposal. He is eager to push the ball downfield more and take advantage of the team’s diverse receiving options. The Texans are focused on action and are determined to continue their upward trajectory in the upcoming season. –Field Level Media
