The Houston Texans have been very strong defensively for most of the 2023 regular season and that’s due to the development of young talent over the past handful of years.
Despite the outcome of their regular season matchup, Houston’s defense is nothing to be scoffed at. They’re in the top 10-12 when it comes to a lot of the most important defensive categories, and have been getting healthier and healthier in recent weeks. The Texans were without multiple defenders in Week 16, and it most likely affected the final outcome of the game.
Though there are a couple more guys who have had their moments for Houston’s defense in 2023, these four players have consistently been top-notch throughout the entire year.
