The Houston Texans have posted four wins the past two seasons. That tends to happen when a team doesn’t have a first-round pick the past two drafts and didn’t get to make their initial selection until Round 3 in 2021. Throw in the customary attrition and inadequate depth replacement by the previous regime, and it is easy to understand why Houston is stuck at four wins.
However, the Texans are expected to do worse in 2022 — even with a new coach, two first-round picks, and a second-year quarterback who was responsible for two of their wins last season through 11 starts with a worse roster.
According to Nate Davis from USA TODAY (subscriber only), Houston will finish 3-14 and end up picking No. 1 overall in the 2023 NFL draft.
