Diggs era done? Texans face free-agent dilemma with star wide receiver

The Houston Texans sport a luxury not afforded to every 2024 playoff team as they approach March's free agency and April's NFL draft. DeMeco Ryans' squad enters the offseason with just three starters from last year's team slated to enter free agency, with just one of them (wide receiver Stefon Diggs) sporting a Pro Bowl resume. The Texans are a tier below the top three teams in the AFC (Kansas City, Buffalo and Baltimore). Their offseason, fortunately, will likely result in an improved roster.

Houston has 25 current free agents in the 2025 cycle beginning March 26, and general manager Nick Caserio enters March juggling a roster effectively $3 million over the salary cap.
