The Houston Texans are a surprising entrant in the 2023 NFL playoff race thanks to C.J. Stroud. The No. 2 overall pick of the 2023 NFL Draft looks like a strong building block, and has the Texans in contention.
But the Jacksonville Jaguars should present a massive test in Week 12. The Texans actually came out on top when the two teams squared off in Week 3, so Jacksonville will be more motivated than ever to shut Houston down.
A win could be massive for Houston's playoff hopes. The Jaguars lead the AFC South with a 7-3 record entering Week 12.
