With the NFL regular season coming to an end this weekend, the chase for the No. 1 pick in the 2023 draft is still up for grabs and it’s down to just two teams.
The Bears (3–13) and Texans (2-13-1) can both secure the top selection in the draft but certain things have to go their way. Here’s what it comes down to:
How the Texans get the No. 1 pick: For Houston, there are several scenarios. The Texans get the No. 1 pick if they lose their game against the Colts on Sunday or if the Bears upset the Vikings the same day.
In another scenario, Houston also gets the No. 1 pick if the team wins their weekend matchup so long as Chicago plays to a tie. In this event, both teams would be 3-13-1 but because the Bears beat them earlier in the year, they’d have the tiebreaker and the Texans would rewarded with the pick.
Kickoff for both matchups is slated for 1 p.m. ET on Sunday.
