The soap opera that has been the Texans 2020 season took another twist on Thanksgiving when Houston won its 2nd consecutive game of the season with a blowout win over the Detroit Lions. The Texans have less than a puncher's chance at sneaking into the playoffs, but, as Charlie Pallilo explores in the above video, there would seem to be a lot more on the line than just the playoffs.
Editors note: This video was recorded prior to the Will Fuller suspension news.
The Houston Texans have shaken up their roster, sending wide receiver John Metchie III to the Philadelphia Eagles in exchange for tight end Harrison Bryant and a late-round pick swap. On today’s show, we break down why this trade makes sense for both sides, what Bryant brings to Houston’s tight end room, and why Metchie ended up being the odd man out in a crowded wide receiver group.
NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reports the Texans will also receive a 2026 fifth-round pick while sending a 2026 sixth-rounder back to Philadelphia. We’ll also look at Bryant’s experience and fit behind Dalton Schultz, why Metchie never fully established himself in Houston, and how this move changes the Texans’ depth chart moving forward.
Be sure to watch the video below as ESPN Houston's John Granato and Lance Zierlein break it all down.
