The Houston Texans won’t play their starters in the final preseason game, so that makes joint practice with the Carolina Panthers even more important.
What do we need to see from Houston?
The rushing attack needs to keep showing signs of life. Fringe roster players need to make their cases. And young wide receivers like Jaylin Noel and Jayden Higgins have another opportunity to create some momentum after making plays in practice.
Plus, the Panthers have struggled to cover tight ends — which could make this another big week for Houston’s TE room.
And then there’s Bryce Young vs. the Texans defense.
We already know Houston’s defense is going to give Carolina a serious test. The question is: what should Texans fans be watching for when these two teams share the field in joint practice?
Today, John Hickman is joined by Julian Council of Locked On Panthers to get the Carolina perspective before diving into what these practices could mean for Houston heading into the regular season.
Then, John closes the show by breaking down the latest ESPN Fantasy Football Rankings:
C.J. Stroud is QB23 — is that the perfect late-round fantasy value?
Nico Collins is WR9 — meaning he’ll likely be gone early.
Where do the rest of the Texans fantasy football options rank?
Who is being undervalued?
Which Houston players could become fantasy steals?
The preseason is almost over. The starters may not play, but there’s still plenty to watch.
