Houston, TX, August 12, 2026 —
Houston Texans training camp has yielded several unforeseen positive storylines as the team gears up for the upcoming season. Notably, rookie first-round draft pick Keylan Rutledge has made a swift adjustment to the center position. His performance suggests he could emerge as a contender to replace veteran Jake Andrews at the crucial offensive line spot.
In the backfield, running back Woody Marks is demonstrating considerable progress. His improved play is positioning him to potentially vie for a more substantial role, possibly leading to a more balanced distribution of carries with current starter David Montgomery.
On the defensive side, the return of veteran defensive end Jadeveon Clowney has been a welcome development. The 33-year-old Clowney has showcased impactful plays during early practice sessions, adding a notable presence to the defensive line.
