Analyst Reveals Biggest Question for Houston Texans Next Season

The Houston Texans have made a variety of changes and additions around their roster this offseason to effectively give this group a breath of new life on both ends of the field, and perhaps could act as the tweaks necessary to keep this group a consistent force en route to their third-straight AFC South victory for the first time in franchise history.

However, as the Texans take on their next season with training camp now setting less than a month away, Houston may still have one question to ask themselves before entering the year ahead, which may inevitably have a major effect on how high the ceiling is for this group's performance.

In the eyes of Sports Illustrated analyst Gilberto Manzano, the biggest question for the Texans heading into training camp may center upon one spot on the roster: How much do the RBs have left?

"Joe Mixon will turn 29 later this month and has had at least 210 carries in the past four seasons, including last year in his first season with the Texans when he rushed for 1,016 yards and 11 touchdowns. The team recently added help,  signing of Nick Chubb, but the 29-year-old running back struggled to find his top form last year after returning from a significant knee injury sustained in 2023. There’s also Dameon Pierce, but he hasn’t proven to be a consistent playmaker in recent seasons. Perhaps Houston gets some juice from rookie fourth-round pick Woody Marks."
