ESPN news: Texans GM set two new rules for the team
One of the NFL’s most thrilling teams the previous season was the Houston Texans.
The Texans made a significant turnaround by winning the division in 2022 after finishing as one of the weakest teams in the league.
Although there may not have been much optimism for this club a year ago, a lot has changed in that time.
The team’s morale was much enhanced by the addition of C.J. Stroud, who seemed to have inspired those around him.
Texans general manager Nick Caserio recently appeared on the Pat McAfee Show, where he discussed the team’s current accomplishments as well as future growth prospects.
“Our squad doesn’t follow many rules. Protecting the team comes first, and there should be no energy vampires, Caserio added.
Caserio thinks that the Texans are a hard-working squad and that hard work is a must for every NFL team.
They appear to have made a number of offseason additions that will mesh well with the team dynamic and advance them closer to their Super Bowl aspirations.
In his debut season, Stroud proved he has what it takes, and if the squad can maintain this momentum going forward, the possibilities are endless.
Last season, the Texans emerged victorious in the AFC South, and should the other teams in the division misbehave, they have a good chance of assuming the lead going forward.

Stefon Diggs of the Texans slays pushups while carrying three plates on his back.
Now that the NFL offseason has begun, Stefon Diggs appears to be making the most of it.
The wide receiver, who was traded to the Houston Texans last month, posted a video of himself performing elevated pushups on his Instagram story on Thursday. In the video, he adds a twist by placing three plates, each weighing 45 pounds, on his back.
Diggs shared a second video of himself performing pushups while carrying just a single weight on his back on his story. With a caption, he said, “This s— was f—ing hard.”
Diggs has included a challenging modified pushup in his training regimen before. He posted a video of a pushup variation that involved being pressed to the ground and resistance bands during the 2020 offseason.
In April, after four seasons with the Buffalo Bills, Diggs was dealt to the Texans. Diggs has amassed at least 1,000 receiving yards in six consecutive seasons. During his four seasons with the Bills, he also set a league record with 445 receptions.
In 2024, the Texans will play host to the Bills. The date will be revealed this month when the NFL releases its schedule.
