WATCH: Best highlights from Texans DE Dylan Horton from TCU

The Houston Texans selected defensive end Dylan Horton with the No. 109 overall pick in the 2023 NFL draft Saturday.

Horton was a key piece of TCU’s defense last season and should serve as valuable depth behind third-overall selection Will Anderson on the Texans’ roster.

Horton was a productive player for the Horned Frogs and will have a chance to contribute in Houston as the team looks to rebuild next season. Check out some of the highlights that warranted his selection in the fourth round to get more familiar with his game:

Dylan Horton is a very solid pick for the Texans.

Horton is a bigger DE with long arms, active hands, decent rip, high motor and a very good run defender

Horton has potential to kick inside as well 🔥 pic.twitter.com/fiYsuzhAc0

Texans add more to their DL with Dylan Horton. Former SAF with awesome twitch and heavy hands. Can play inside at 5T, 4i, and 3T too. Should be a fun fit with Will Anderson. Really good at taking on blocks and shedding them: pic.twitter.com/p0EDpNtSkz

One thing I’m big on when watching #NFLDraft film is effort… watch these back-2-back plays by #TCU’s Dylan Horton. These were 2 significant plays very early in the game, that help set the table for the upset.
