I was joined by KPRC2 Texans beat reporter Aaron Wilson (@aaronwilson_nfl) for an in-depth conversation about the Houston Texans' offseason. We covered a wide range of topics including the state of the offensive line, what the initial starting five could look like, and potential cut candidates heading into camp. Aaron also shared valuable injury and health status updates on key players and gave insight into how the front office views the current roster.

We had an incredible sit-down with Steph Stradley (@StephStradley), longtime Texans writer and voice of the fanbase, to learn more about her story and her deep roots in Houston football. Steph shared how she went from being an Oilers fan to starting on Texans message boards, becoming a member of the Traveling Texans, and tailgating with the iconic LoneSpot crew. She's also a former Texans Fan of the Year, a practicing lawyer, and someone who's constantly thinking about how we, as fans, can create the best home-field advantage possible.

From bringing energy to the stadium to uniting the fanbase, Steph brought real insight into what it means to be a Texans diehard.

After our conversation, I dove into a live Q&A and broke down the entire 2025 schedule, game by game, with reactions and analysis.

Former NFL WR Cecil Shorts III joined the show for an incredible conversation about his journey, his current work with the Houston Texans, and his insight into the team’s offseason moves.

We dove into his football background, from following in Pierre Garçon’s footsteps at Division III powerhouse Mount Union to being drafted by the Jacksonville Jaguars and later playing for the Houston Texans. Cecil also talked about his current role as the gameday emcee for the Texans and his work as the host of Bleav in Texans (@bleavnetwork) and co-host of The Ultimate 216 (@ultclesports).

Cecil shared his thoughts on the Texans’ wide receiver room, including a high-end comp for rookie Jaylin Noel and how uniquely Jayden Higgins runs routes for his size. He also made the case that Nico Collins is already a top 5 WR in the NFL.

We broke down Houston’s offseason — both free agency and the draft — and how it reflects a cultural reset, especially along the offensive line. Cecil pointed out that some of the changes felt like an indictment of last year’s coaching and scheme. We discussed what we might see new OC Nick Caley implement in this offense that we didn’t see last year: more 4-WR sets, quicker hot routes, and giving CJ Stroud more control at the line.
