Texans veteran punter Shane Lechler is at the end of one of his best seasons.
Lechler doesn't intend for this to be the end of his career.
The seven-time Pro Bowl selection said Friday he intends to return for a 19th NFL season.
"Is this my last year? No, it's not," Lechler said at his locker. "I have too much I think to offer to the game and I hit the ball good consistently this year. I went into the year with a good plan and, for the most part, it worked out. ..
"I think the way this year we were hit so hard with injuries, there's no way I would walk away with the talent in this room.
