Houston Texans 2025 NFL Betting Odds & Picks
Following three consecutive seasons out of the playoffs, the Houston Texans have found a winning combination that appears to have considerable upside. In 2023, DeMeco Ryans took over as head coach with rookie quarterback CJ Stroud. Houston is coming off two consecutive playoff campaigns with its dynamic duo of Ryans and Stroud.
Considering that the Texans play in the weak AFC South, expectations are high that they will win more and earn more postseason bids. In the 2025 offseason, the Texans made an array of trades up and down the board, which landed them several talented players, including Iowa State receivers Jayden Higgins and Jaylin Noel.
It’s hard to look at this offseason as a complete success for the Texans. They already struggled on the offensive line last year, as Laremy Tunsil was their only offensive lineman who earned an overall grade above 70.2, and they traded him away during a pivotal time in Stroud’s rookie-contract window.

2025 Houston Texans Schedule, Results & Record
Houston had a puzzling offseason. Its offensive line struggled throughout the campaign, but its answer to that was trading away left tackle Tunsil, its best lineman, to the Commanders. The Texans did add Cam Robinson in free agency and Aireontae Ersery in the draft to help improve the unit and cushion the blow of losing Tunsil, but it's hard to say they've improved along the line.
Meanwhile, they've revamped their wide receiver room with Higgins and Noel out of Iowa State and Christian Kirk in a trade with the Jaguars. That trio now comes into work behind Nico Collins, and likely foreshadows a long recovery window for Tank Dell. Again, those moves are exciting, but if Stroud doesn't have time to get them the football, their additions will be moot. Extending Hunter and Stingley was a smart and logical move.

Houston is not a franchise that has lacked regular-season success. The Texans made the playoffs six times from 2011 through 2019. However, their postseason record has been hapless, with no advancement past the divisional round. The Texans were founded as a 2002 expansion team following the move of the Houston Oilers to Tennessee.
Following their stunning 2019 AFC Divisional Playoff loss to the Kansas City Chiefs, the Texans have never been the same. Houston jumped out to a 24-0 lead early in the second quarter, and many fans and gamblers believed the game was over. Instead, Kansas City scored 41 unanswered points en route to a 51-31 win. The humiliation for the Texans has never been lived down. And it caused the then-head coach and general manager, Bill O’Brien, to lose his mind.
In the offseason leading up to the 2020 campaign, O’Brien seemed unhinged, making bizarre roster moves that seemed to be an overreaction to the loss at Kansas City. The team tuned out O’Brien, and he was fired early in the 2020 campaign after an 0-4 start.
But it looks like brighter days are ahead for the Texans with Ryan and Stroud.
