2026 Houston Texans preview: Can C.J. Stroud bounce back and turn an elite Texans defense into an AFC contender? Smalls is joined by Producer Ryan McKee to break down Houston’s offseason, David Montgomery, Nico Collins, Tank Dell, Dalton Schultz, the offensive line, fantasy football values, AFC South odds and their favorite Texans bets for the 2026 NFL season.
After a franchise-record 12-win season powered by one of the NFL’s best defenses, Houston enters 2026 with pressure on Stroud and a revamped running game. Smalls and Ryan discuss why David Montgomery could be one of the Texans’ best fantasy football values, whether Nico Collins is worth his draft price, Tank Dell’s upside when healthy and why Dalton Schultz could be a late-round fantasy sleeper.
Then it’s time for the betting angles: Houston’s win total and AFC South odds, Texans futures, Nico Collins and David Montgomery touchdown props, plus Will Anderson Jr.’s sack total and Defensive Player of the Year odds.
