The Houston Texans 2025 season is a dumpster fire. C.J. Stroud is in concussion protocol, the offensive line is in the witness protection program, and offensive coordinator Nick Caley needs to find a real estate agent back in New England.

With an ugly 18-15 loss at home to the Denver Broncos on Sunday, the Houston Texans fell to 3-5 on the season. A 3-5 record, eight games in, already pushes an NFL team to the edge of the abyss, but a 3-5 record with your franchise quarterback concussed? Well, let’s just say that there is no parachute coming. Death feels imminent.

The Texans signed linebacker and special teams ace Jake Hansen to a one-year contract extension, per a team announcement.
