Texans Could Trade Offensive Lineman Ahead of 2026 Season

Summary

The Houston Texans finished the 2025 NFL season with a 12-5 record but want to improve next year. Experts suggest the Texans consider trading offensive lineman Jarrett Patterson before the 2026 season starts, partly because a new player, Keylan Rutledge, may take Patterson’s spot on the team.

Key Facts

  • The Texans had a 12-5 record in the 2025 NFL season and ranked second in their division.
  • They aim to become the top team in the AFC South in the next season.
  • Sports analyst Moe Moton recommends the Texans trade offensive lineman Jarrett Patterson.
  • Patterson is currently a part-time starter on the team’s offensive line.
  • Keylan Rutledge, a new player from Georgia Tech, was added in the first round of the most recent NFL draft.
