The 2016 Houston Texans defense allowed the fewest yards per game in the NFL.
On Tuesday at the Houston Methodist Training Center, the 2017 version continued to look stingy.
"Every year is different," cornerback Johnathan Joseph said. "But after the way we finished the season last year, when you get back out here on the field you rebound off how the year went the year before and just try to get better."
The veteran corner said the squad was bolstered by the return from injury of defensive end J.J. Watt, as well as safety Kurtis Drummond.
