Houston's left tackle has faced tough competition against Rams, Bucs and Titans and is his harshest critic but Texans see progress

The Texans have been the lowest-scoring offense throughout the NFL within three weeks of action. This offense has also resulted in the worst third-down effectiveness, ranking in the bottom-ten within both passing and rushing yards on the year, and find themselves within the bottom-five in EPA/play.

Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud drove Houston into striking distance with a pair of conversions in the closing seconds, but defensive end Josh Hines-Allen tipped his pass from behind, leading to defensive back Antonio Johnson being in the right place to intercept the football and seal the victory.

Texans coach DeMeco Ryans says he has a pulse of what's going on in locker room and releasing C.J. Gardner-Johnson is best for team

According to Jonathan M. Alexander of The Houston Chronicle, Texans cornerback Derek Stingley Jr. was not seen at the team's third and final practice available to the media ahead of this weekend's game vs. the Titans.
