With just one win after five games, the Houston Texans appear destined for a third straight dismal season.
There is, however, some good news about this year’s team that should give fans hope. Houston has a great rookie class featuring several players who have already made an impact.
General manager Nick Caserio has been impressed with Pierce’s early production but said what has stood out to him the most is the player's work ethic. His performance has helped the Texans average 99.2 yards rushing per game, which is tied for 22nd in the league. That might not seem like much, but it’s a major improvement for a team whose running game ranked last in the NFL in 2021 and 31st two years ago.
Two of Houston’s other top rookies are cornerback Derek Stingley Jr. and safety Jalen Pitre. Stingley, taken third overall, and Pitre, a second-round pick, have both started each game this season and made big contributions. Offensive lineman Kenyon Green, the 15th overall pick, has also been coming along after missing significant time in camp after sustaining a concussion. He came off the bench in the opener but has started the last four games and has improved each week.
