Asked what corners he's seen with as good hands as Derek Stingley Jr., Houston Texans coach DeMeco Ryans pointed to Hall of Famer Deion Sanders.

“We’re really excited to get to Detroit and go against the Lions,” Texans coach DeMeco Ryans said. “As we talked about all week, it’ll be a great opportunity for us to go and compete against a really good football team, competitive team. Looking to see where we stack up versus this team. So, very excited to get to work.”

And in the midst of an appealing performance from this offensive line, Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans gave the unit a bit of praise following the events of Saturday's win, with the one main takeaway of this Houston o-line being the togetherness showcased upfront.

Houston Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans had some high praise for his rookie running back after Saturday’s preseason game against the Panthers. Woody Marks, a fourth-round pick out of USC, only had three carries in the team’s first preseason match against the Vikings.

Texans RB Nick Chubb is rounding back into form as the four-time Pro Bowler hit holes and pushed piles in Houston’s preseason win over the Carolina Panthers.

Perhaps the Texans' biggest decision of this current era was backing out of a proposed trade with the Panthers and Bears in 2023.
