Houston Texans 2026 season performance
Overview
The Houston Texans entered their Week 8 bye week with a 2-5 record following an overtime loss to the New York Giants. Coach DeMeco Ryans noted low team morale, and the team faced concerns regarding a declining defense and an inconsistent run game.
By Week 9, the team continued to struggle with a 2-5 record and various roster setbacks, including a season-ending injury to wide receiver Jaylin Noel. Despite these challenges, the team maintained a 24.9% chance of making the playoffs according to ESPN’s Football Power Index. As the NFL trade deadline approached, the front office faced decisions on whether to acquire players, such as veteran running back Devin Singletary, to address depth issues caused by injuries to players like David Montgomery.
