Sudden Cardiac Arrest. It’s a condition that occurs out of nowhere, without warning and is the No. 1 cause of death in student athletes. On May 17, 2015, after a pick up basketball game with friends, Cameron Juniel collapsed and died on the basketball court. The cause of death was sudden cardiac arrest. At only twenty years old, Cameron’s death was a shock to his friends and family. Sudden Cardiac Arrest strikes mostly in athletes that play basketball or football, are male and African American. Doctors discovered that Cameron’s heart condition was genetic and an Electrocardiogram (EKG) could have have given doctors life saving information before his death.
An EKG is quick, painless, and non-invasive. On Sunday, Jan. 28 from 11:30 a.m. – 5 p.m., the Cameron Juniel Project with the help of Who we Play For and The Cody Stenve’s Foundation will be offering free EKG’s for anyone age 11 to 25 at The Kingdom Builder’s Center – 6011 West Orem Drive Houston, TX 77085. Five minutes is all it takes to save a life. It could be yours or one of your family members.

How Houston Astros look to address major red flags in critical positions
Mar 20, 2025, 4:18 pm
To say the Houston Texans have been busy this week would be a colossal understatement. The team agreed to a massive contract extension with All-Pro corner Derek Stingley Jr, restructured lineman Tytus Howard's contract, and signed free agent left tackle Cam Robinson to a one-year deal.
The #Texans and Danielle Hunter have agreed to a one-year, $35.6 million contract extension that makes him the NFL’s second-highest paid defensive end, per sources.

Texans GM Nick Caserio is definitely earning his paycheck this week, as there is now another extension to discuss. According to multiple reports, pass rusher Danielle Hunter has agreed to a one-year, $35.6 million extension.
Tom Pelissero is reporting in the post above that “Hunter will make $32M this season — a $12.5M raise — and $55.1M ($54.1M fully guaranteed) over the next two seasons.”
Good work if you can get it.
The Texans are making a strong push to equip QB C.J. Stroud with top talent over the next two years. This is the ideal window to invest before they face a hefty commitment to his second contract.
With fewer pressing needs, Houston can now approach the draft with flexibility, prioritizing the best players available.
