With the Texans sitting at 0-4 and Bill O'Brien recently fired by the Texans, this seems like a perfect time for the Texans to trade JJ Watt, get some cap relief, and restore some draft capital that Bill O'Brien traded away over the past year. According to Colin Cowherd, the Texans should have plenty of suitors for Watt's services. Check out the video to find out which 5 teams should make a run at acquiring Watt from the Texans.

Astros’ pitching holds firm in nail-biter versus Phillies
Jun 24, 2025, 9:59 pm
Jeremy Peña is putting together the best season of his career, and it’s time to start asking some serious questions about what comes next.
After a strong rookie campaign and a magical playoff run in 2022, Peña has reemerged as one of the best shortstops in baseball. His numbers are now right in line with, and in some cases better than, Bobby Witt Jr., the player many consider the gold standard at the position. But Peña's resurgence isn't the only headline, he’s now officially signed with Scott Boras, baseball’s most powerful agent, signaling that a major payday could be on the horizon.
That decision raises real questions about Peña’s future in Houston. With just two years left on his deal, is he heading toward the same path as other homegrown stars who have ultimately walked in free agency? Or will the Astros finally reverse course and invest long-term in one of their own? The team’s payroll philosophy, built around letting expensive veterans leave while developing new talent, has worked for years. But Peña’s rise is testing just how far that system can stretch.
As his star continues to rise, the pressure is mounting. Will Houston commit to keeping him, or let another one slip away?
Be sure to watch the video below as ESPN Houston's Paul Gallant weighs in!
