What is the Houston Texans' path to playoff contention?

The Houston Texans fell to an NFL-worst 1-12-1 with an overtime loss to the Kansas City Chiefs on Sunday, boosting their chances of receiving the No. 1 overall pick in the draft for the fourth time in franchise history and first since 2014.

It might seem like a distant memory at this point, with three head coaches and three 12-plus-loss campaigns in the past three years, but it isn't that long ago that the Texans were a playoff contender. How can they get back to that level?

Former NFL player Ross Tucker—who is the host of Even Money and the Ross Tucker Football Podcast, as well as an analyst for DraftKings—joined Chron last week to give his thoughts.
