Following a road loss to the Green Bay Packers and C.J. Stroud's career-worst passing performance, the Texans returned to NRG Stadium and defeated the Colts 23-20. Joe Mixon was the highlight of the offense, rushing for 102 and a touchdown. However, the offensive line continued to struggle, allowing two sacks and nine quarterback hits. Left guard Kenyon Green was benched in the first quarter after giving up a sack and was replaced by Jarrett Patterson. Green reentered the game after Patterson suffered a concussion but still allowed seven pressures. KPRC reporter Aaron Wilson joins Next Up to partake in Second Take Tuesday and preview how the offensive line will look heading into MetLife Stadium to take on the New York Jets on Thursday Night Football. "I would not be surprised at all if there is change at one position, which is the left guard," Wilson said.

Following a road loss to the Green Bay Packers and C.J. Stroud's career-worst passing performance, the Texans returned to NRG Stadium and defeated the Colts 23-20. Joe Mixon was the highlight of the offense, rushing for 102 and a touchdown. However, the offensive line continued to struggle, allowing two sacks and nine quarterback hits. Left guard Kenyon Green was benched in the first quarter after giving up a sack and was replaced by Jarrett Patterson. Green reentered the game after Patterson suffered a concussion but still allowed seven pressures. KPRC reporter Aaron Wilson joins Next Up to partake in Second Take Tuesday and preview how the offensive line will look heading into MetLife Stadium to take on the New York Jets on Thursday Night Football. "I would not be surprised at all if there is change at one position, which is the left guard," Wilson said. The wide receiver group has become another concern after Stefon Diggs left the field in the third quarter with a non-contact knee injury. With Nico Collins still out another week, Tank Dell will become the primary receiver.

KPRC reporter Aaron Wilson joins Next Up to discuss Green Bay snapping the Texans three-game winning streak. The Texans did not have five starters in the lineup on defense and were unable to stop the Packers in the final drive. The offense struggled as C.J. Stroud was 10 of 21 for a career-low 86 yards and was sacked four times. "Not every sack was on the offensive line," Wilson said. However, the offensive line has "got to be coachable" after allowing seven quarterback hits. The heavy pressure on Stroud contributed to a disappointing passing game, with Tank Dell recording no receptions on four targets. Sunday's underwhelming performance brought up questions about the Texans' roster depth and whether general manager Nick Caserio could make a move prior to the NFL trade deadline on November 5.

The Texans are coming off a 41-21 victory over the New England Patriots that saw the return of running backs Joe Mixon and Dameon Pierce, who each rushed for a touchdown. With the running back room regaining strength, the Texans traded Cam Akers and a conditional 2026 seventh-round draft pick to the Minnesota Vikings in exchange for a conditional 2026 sixth-round draft pick.

The Texans are coming off a 41-21 victory over the New England Patriots that saw the return of running backs Joe Mixon and Dameon Pierce, who each rushed for a touchdown. With the running back room regaining strength, the Texans traded Cam Akers and a conditional 2026 seventh-round draft pick to the Minnesota Vikings in exchange for a conditional 2026 sixth-round draft pick.

"Not a lot to complain about if you're a Texans fan." KPRC reporter Aaron Wilson joins Next Up to break down Houston's first ever win at Gillette Stadium. C.J. Stroud threw three touchdown passes to spoil rookie quarterback Drake Maye's debut. Running backs Joe Mixon and Dameon Pierce returned from injury and each rushed for a touchdown. "When they have a running game... they're a different kind of team," Wilson said. The offense rushed for 192 yards against the Patriots, but the established run attack opened up the field for the passing game, with Stefon Diggs recording six catches for 77 yards and a touchdown and Tank Dell bringing in seven receptions for 57 yards and a touchdown. Houston's top receiver Nico Collins was placed on injured reserve with a hamstring injury and is expected to be out four weeks; however, "they have enough weapons with Stefon Diggs and Tank Dell to get it done." As the Texans prepare to take on the Green Bay Packers in Week 7, the NFL announced Monday that defensive tackle Mario Edwards Jr. has been suspended four games without pay for violating the league's substance abuse policy. Without an appeal, Edwards will be eligible for reinstatement on November 1. "Currently, he is suspended. I don't expect it to be overturned."

The final regular-season home game Wednesday afternoon saw Alex Bregman start at third base. However, in the fourth inning, manager Joe Espada removed Bregman from the game to receive an ovation from the fans at Minute Maid Park in what could be his final regular-season home game with the Astros. Brian Bogusevic, former Astros outfielder and Space City Home Network analyst, joins to discuss Alex Bregman's future in Houston. Bregman is set to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason, and while general manager Dana Brown has said he will talk with agent Scott Boras about an extension, "there are going to be people in the market willing to overpay for him," Bogusevic said.

The final regular-season home game Wednesday afternoon saw Alex Bregman start at third base. However, in the fourth inning, manager Joe Espada removed Bregman from the game to receive an ovation from the fans at Minute Maid Park in what could be his final regular-season home game with the Astros. Brian Bogusevic, former Astros outfielder and Space City Home Network analyst, joins to discuss Alex Bregman's future in Houston. Bregman is set to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason, and while general manager Dana Brown has said he will talk with agent Scott Boras about an extension, "there are going to be people in the market willing to overpay for him," Bogusevic said. The Astros have a history of not paying the market and thus not extending homegrown players, such as Carlos Correa and George Springer. Other teams might be willing to offer Bregman more than the Astros because "they don't have what they think [Bregman] brings to a clubhouse."

With seven consecutive American League Championship Series appearances and two World Series titles, it is evident the Astros are familiar with postseason baseball, and after a competitive road series against the San Diego Padres, it seems as though the leaders in the AL West got an early taste of what to expect this October. Brian Bogusevic, former Astros outfielder and Space City Home Network analyst, joins Next Up following Wednesday's 4-0 loss to the Padres, dropping the three-game series. Framber Valdez gave up five hits, one of which was a homer to Manny Machado, in seven innings, walking two batters and striking out six. However, the Padres pulled away in the eighth after back-to-back-to-back homers off Kaleb Ort. The Padres are currently chasing the Los Angeles Dodgers for first place in the NL West. "It definitely felt like they were in playoff mode," Bogusevic said. The Astros will host the Los Angeles Angels for a four-game series in an attempt to clinch the AL West title.

With seven consecutive American League Championship Series appearances and two World Series titles, it is evident the Astros are familiar with postseason baseball, and after a competitive road series against the San Diego Padres, it seems as though the leaders in the AL West got an early taste of what to expect this October. Brian Bogusevic, former Astros outfielder and Space City Home Network analyst, joins Next Up following Wednesday's 4-0 loss to the Padres, dropping the three-game series. Framber Valdez gave up five hits, one of which was a homer to Manny Machado, in seven innings, walking two batters and striking out six. However, the Padres pulled away in the eighth after back-to-back-to-back homers off Kaleb Ort. The Padres are currently chasing the Los Angeles Dodgers for first place in the NL West. "It definitely felt like they were in playoff mode," Bogusevic said. The Astros will host the Los Angeles Angels for a four-game series in an attempt to clinch the AL West title. "You want to go into the playoffs playing well." With the Astros already five games ahead of the Mariners in the division, could manager Joe Espada begin to rest players before the opening round of the postseason?

Veteran kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn was named AFC Special Teams Player of the Week after a NFL record-setting performance. Fairbairn became the first kicker in NFL history with six 50-plus yard field goals within a two-game span. Fairbairn's 59-yard kick at the end of the first half stands as the longest field goal made this season and sits at second in franchise history. "He's been automatic," and "you can't really understate his importance to this team," Alexander said. While the Texans can celebrate being the only 2-0 team atop the AFC South, Sunday's win was not necessarily dominant as the offense struggled against a strong Bears defense. Nico Collins' 28-yard touchdown to open up the second quarter would be the only time C.J. Stroud and the offense would find the endzone. "It's fair to be critical," but "you have to be patient" considering there is "a lot more football left to be played." The Texans will travel to Minneapolis to take on the Minnesota Vikings in Week 3.

Backup quarterback Case Keenum headed to the locker room during Saturday's preseason game with an arm injury. Running back Cam Akers rushed for 53 yards on seven carries against his former team. Will Keenum stay on the roster as the third quarterback, and will Akers be higher on the depth chart than Dameon Pierce?

Backup quarterback Case Keenum headed to the locker room during Saturday's preseason game with an arm injury. Running back Cam Akers rushed for 53 yards on seven carries against his former team. Will Keenum stay on the roster as the third quarterback, and will Akers be higher on the depth chart than Dameon Pierce? Stan and Chris also discuss the Astros splitting the four-game road series with the Baltimore Orioles following Sunday's 6-3 victory.

Alex Bregman appeared in the lineup as a designated hitter and smacked a lead-off home run in his first at-bat after being out five games with right elbow inflammation.

The Texans have strengthened every position group in the offseason, and on paper, the offensive line leads the way with four-time Pro Bowler Laremy Tunsil and veteran Tytus Howard. However, many remain cautious when discussing the potential of the offensive line due to the extensive injuries of past seasons.

The Texans have strengthened every position group in the offseason, and on paper, the offensive line leads the way with four-time Pro Bowler Laremy Tunsil and veteran Tytus Howard. However, many remain cautious when discussing the potential of the offensive line due to the extensive injuries of past seasons. Pro Football Focus ranks the Texans offensive line at No. 22 entering the 2024 season.

At the beginning of the season, "they were finding ways to lose games," but now, as the Astros hold a 2.5-game lead in the AL West, "you got to be able to win in different ways," Bogusevic said. Jeremy Peña has showcased his hitting power as of late, smashing three homers over the last four games. "He was coming off a tough stretch," but "he worked his way out of it." Ronel Blanco was having a great outing, throwing 73 pitches in six scoreless innings, before he was forced to exit when a comeback ball grazed his index finger.

At the beginning of the season, "they were finding ways to lose games," but now, as the Astros hold a 2.5-game lead in the AL West, "you got to be able to win in different ways," Bogusevic said. Jeremy Peña has showcased his hitting power as of late, smashing three homers over the last four games. "He was coming off a tough stretch," but "he worked his way out of it." Ronel Blanco was having a great outing, throwing 73 pitches in six scoreless innings, before he was forced to exit when a comeback ball grazed his index finger. While the Astros offense has been up and down, starting pitching has continued to be consistent during this winning stretch. "You can feel this starting pitching staff feeding off one another."

Yusei Kikuchi took the mound and held the Rangers scoreless through five innings before giving up a solo home run in the sixth. The left-handed starter gave up four hits and two runs while striking out eight. The Astros are 2-0 with Kikuchi starting; however, there are concerns that Kikuchi cannot take the Astros deep into games. "He's not really a pitch-to-contact guy," so Kikuchi's pitch count gets high by nature of his pitches, Bogusevic said. While the Astros were able to pull out the season series win, the offense was in a slump prior to arriving in Arlington, often struggling to bring in runners in scoring position. "There hasn't been a ton of consistency... so unless the bottom half of the order gets hot," run numbers will continue to be low.

Yusei Kikuchi took the mound and held the Rangers scoreless through five innings before giving up a solo home run in the sixth. The left-handed starter gave up four hits and two runs while striking out eight. The Astros are 2-0 with Kikuchi starting; however, there are concerns that Kikuchi cannot take the Astros deep into games. "He's not really a pitch-to-contact guy," so Kikuchi's pitch count gets high by nature of his pitches, Bogusevic said. While the Astros were able to pull out the season series win, the offense was in a slump prior to arriving in Arlington, often struggling to bring in runners in scoring position. "There hasn't been a ton of consistency... so unless the bottom half of the order gets hot," run numbers will continue to be low. However, Yordan Alvarez has provided a spark, recording homers in back-to-back games after not hitting one since July 21. "He's getting hot." Bogusevic also discusses Zach Dezenzo going 2-for-3 with one walk at first base and previews the Astros three-game road series against the Boston Red Sox.]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>572</itunes:duration><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/22e0ea67829672317c1b6504ff5c9802.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>Framber One Out Away From No-Hitter, Kikuchi Starting In Silver Boot Series Tiebreaker</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/framber-one-out-away-from-no-hitter-kikuchi-starting-in-silver-boot-series-tiebreaker--60949467</link><description><![CDATA[Stan Norfleet of Next Up and Dan Mathews of The A-Team recap the Houston Astros defeating the Texas Rangers 4-2 to even the three-game series and force a tiebreaker for the Silver Boot Series.

Davis Mills started for the Texans at the quarterback position and completed 10 of 13 passes for 102 yards and a touchdown.

Framber Valdez started on the mound, recording a season-low four innings while allowing eight hits and five earned runs. "That's a tough call to make" to pull Valdez early, but "when guys are elevating off of him, it's not good," Bogusevic said. The Astros dropped the three game series to the Giants 2-1, have lost three out of their last four games, land at a 31-38 record on the season and fall 8.5 games back from the lead in the AL West. Bogusevic says "it's the veteran guys...that got to lead the way" for a postseason spot. "They have to turn leads into wins every time." Jon Singleton returned to the lineup Wednesday, batting in the cleanup spot as the designated hitter, but went 0-4 at the plate. Jose Abreu started at first base and batted eighth, going 0-3 with his at-bats. In regards to playing Abreu, "I don't think it's Joe Espada's decision," Bogusevic said.

Framber Valdez started on the mound, recording a season-low four innings while allowing eight hits and five earned runs. "That's a tough call to make" to pull Valdez early, but "when guys are elevating off of him, it's not good," Bogusevic said. The Astros dropped the three game series to the Giants 2-1, have lost three out of their last four games, land at a 31-38 record on the season and fall 8.5 games back from the lead in the AL West. Bogusevic says "it's the veteran guys...that got to lead the way" for a postseason spot. "They have to turn leads into wins every time." Jon Singleton returned to the lineup Wednesday, batting in the cleanup spot as the designated hitter, but went 0-4 at the plate. Jose Abreu started at first base and batted eighth, going 0-3 with his at-bats. In regards to playing Abreu, "I don't think it's Joe Espada's decision," Bogusevic said. Espada and Dana Brown "are being handed a roster that they need to play." The Astros are "just stuck with that you have...until you find a better option." The MLB trade deadline falls on July 30, and Bogusevic says the Astros are "going to be in position to add" to the roster.

Edholm published an article ranking the 12 NFL teams that have yet to win a Super Bowl by who is most likely to win the Vince Lombardi Trophy in Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans.

The Astros starting rotation has dealt with injuries all year, including Luis Garcia and Lance McCullers who are not expected to return until after the All-Star break and J.P. France who has yet to resume a rehab program after being optioned to Sugar Land. "The depth has been stressed to its max," Bogusevic said. "It's a cause for concern" as the Astros are operating with five healthy starters on the 40-man roster: Justin Verlander, Framber Valdez, Hunter Brown, Spencer Arrighetti and Ronel Blanco. "They all have to be good every time." On whether the Astros could have better prepared for this scenario by adding pitching insurance in the offseason, Bogusevic says the Astros had a healthy rotation heading into spring training. "What else could you have done?" The Astros could not complete the series sweep against the St. Louis Cardinals, losing 4-2 on Wednesday. Third baseman Alex Bregman was scratched due to a sore left hand after being hit by a pitch the night before. Right fielder Kyle Tucker missed his second straight game after fouling a ball off his right shin Monday. The Astros currently sit at a 28-35 record, seven games back from the lead in the AL West.

The NCAA and conferences will pay $2.77 billion over 10 years to former and current college athletes dating back to 2016. Also, each school will be allowed to set aside up to $21 million in revenue to share with athletes each year. Chris, Brian and Dan also discuss the World Baseball Classic coming to Houston, predict when the automated strike zone will be implemented in MLB, react to Cougars football defying NFL legal threats by stating that their alternate blue uniforms is "drastically different" than those of the Houston Oilers and more.]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>5019</itunes:duration><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/94553a983553870245f6c0a5b6bae096.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>Astros Lose Series To Angels, Kyle Tucker Contract Debate, Where's Stefon Diggs At Texans OTAs?</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/astros-lose-series-to-angels-kyle-tucker-contract-debate-where-s-stefon-diggs-at-texans-otas--60152968</link><description><![CDATA[Stan Norfleet and Chris Gordy of Next Up review the 10-game homestand where the Houston Astros went 7-3.

However, the Astros dropped two of the final three games at Minute Maid Park, losing the series to the Los Angeles Angels. Hunter Brown had a quality start on the mound Wednesday, giving up just two earned runs in six innings of work, striking out three, but the Astros would lose 2-1. "I don't think it's fair to judge" the Astros right now as their season has been "incomplete" with injuries and inconsistent production, Bogusevic said. Right fielder Kyle Tucker has been on a recent tear, recording multiple homers in two of his last four games. Tucker currently leads MLB in home runs this season with 17. If the season ended today, "[Tucker] should be the AL MVP." While Tucker remains hot at the plate, Bogusevic says the Astros are "not going anywhere if there's only one guy" scoring runs. "It has to be a collective effort." Tucker has a $12 million, one-year deal and is eligible for free agency after the 2025 season. With Yankees outfielder Juan Soto becoming a free agent following this season and signing a possible "market reset" deal, Tucker's contract extension could be a long-term agreement. "It's starting to get to a place where that number is huge," Bogusevic said. Jose Abreu was demoted to the Florida Complex League on May 1, but during the recent home series against the Milwaukee Brewers, general manager Dana Brown said Abreu will play a few more minor-league games and could join the Astros in Oakland this weekend.

Watt leaving the door open for a possible return to the NFL. At his annual charity softball game, Watt shared that he told head coach DeMeco Ryans that "if you ever do call, I'll be there" if the Texans "absolutely need it." Ryans responded at the Texans charity golf event, saying "I've got his number ready to go, just in case we need it." Are Watt and Ryans serious, or is it just a bit between former teammates? The Astros lost their three-game series against the Seattle Mariners 2-1 at Minute Maid Park.

Watt leaving the door open for a possible return to the NFL. At his annual charity softball game, Watt shared that he told head coach DeMeco Ryans that "if you ever do call, I'll be there" if the Texans "absolutely need it." Ryans responded at the Texans charity golf event, saying "I've got his number ready to go, just in case we need it." Are Watt and Ryans serious, or is it just a bit between former teammates?

With their first pick coming in the second round, the Texans selected Georgia cornerback Kamari Lassiter at No. 42 overall. Alexander had Lassiter on the Texans radar in his early mock drafts. Lassiter "was as solid as they came," and "I wouldn't be shocked" if he started opposite Derek Stingley Jr. next season, Alexander said. The Texans drafted Lassiter following the Philadelphia Eagles trading up for Cooper DeJean and the New Orleans Saints drafting Kool-Aid McKinstry. The Texans "could have made a traded up...if they really loved McKinstry." With the No. 59 overall pick, the Texans drafted offensive tackle Blake Fisher from Notre Dame. Alexander predicts that Fisher is "going to be one of the best immediately" and will "start at right tackle." Since "the jury is still out on Kenyon Green," Tytus Howard could move to the guard position. Alexander also discusses the Texans drafting Jawhar Jordan, a running back from Louisville, with the No. 205 overall pick. Jordan has "special teams value," and "if things don't work out with Dameon Pierce, then you have your future option."]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">https://api.spreaker.com/episode/59737154</guid><pubDate>Tue, 30 Apr 2024 18:34:55 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/api.spreaker.com/download/episode/59737154/jonathanalexander_04_30_2024.mp3" length="15039869" type="audio/mpeg"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/sounder/488253e5-e077-4512-bbbf-7d90fc5f4be2/488253e5-e077-4512-bbbf-7d90fc5f4be2.srt" type="application/x-subrip" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/sounder/488253e5-e077-4512-bbbf-7d90fc5f4be2/488253e5-e077-4512-bbbf-7d90fc5f4be2.txt" type="text/plain" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/sounder/488253e5-e077-4512-bbbf-7d90fc5f4be2/488253e5-e077-4512-bbbf-7d90fc5f4be2.vtt" type="text/vtt" language="en"/><itunes:author>SportsTalk 790 (KBME-AM)</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>Houston Chronicle writer Jonathan Alexander joins Next Up to review the Houston Texans prospects following the NFL Draft.

"Their biggest hole is at defensive tackle," and either a defensive back or defensive tackle will be the first position drafted for the Texans, "wherever you find the most value." Despite this year's draft having a deep wide receiver class, Alexander says "I don't think they need a receiver."]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>707</itunes:duration><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/27427670cc48cf80d524697bc2bc288d.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>Altuve Homers Twice In Series Win Over Rangers, Texans Begin Organized Offseason Workouts</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/altuve-homers-twice-in-series-win-over-rangers-texans-begin-organized-offseason-workouts--59476194</link><description><![CDATA[Stan Norfleet and Chris Gordy of Next Up react to the Houston Astros defeating the Texas Rangers 8-5 Sunday at Minute Maid Park to lead the season record of the Silver Boot Series 4-3.

Framber Valdez was expected to start but was scratched hours before first pitch due to soreness in his throwing elbow. The Astros called up prospect Blair Henley to make his major league debut; however, Henley had an unfortunate showing, facing nine batters and allowing five earned runs in just a third of an inning.

Framber Valdez was expected to start but was scratched hours before first pitch due to soreness in his throwing elbow. The Astros called up prospect Blair Henley to make his major league debut; however, Henley had an unfortunate showing, facing nine batters and allowing five earned runs in just a third of an inning.

The Bills received a 2025 second-round pick from the Texans. Diggs is a "great deep threat," and "he's good after the catch," Wilson said. However, concern has been raised over Diggs' off-the-field attitude and comments. Diggs will "have to work within [the Texans] structure" and it will be a "very competitive training camp."]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>534</itunes:duration><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/2525e831096136f1b398b575227504ba.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>MLB Legend Omar Vizquel Says Houston Has To Be 'Patient' With Astros</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/mlb-legend-omar-vizquel-says-houston-has-to-be-patient-with-astros--59281402</link><description><![CDATA[Former MLB shortstop and 11-time Golden Glove winner Omar Vizquel joins Next Up following the Houston Astros losing 2-1 to the Toronto Blue Jays on Tuesday at Minute Maid Park.

However, the Astros should be confident as their offensive lineup is "one of the best in baseball." With injuries to starting pitching, the Astros looked in the free agent market and even offered Blake Snell who eventually signed with the San Francisco Giants.

"I don't think that's going to affect him at all" because "the better he performs, the better those negotiations are going to go." When the Astros take the field for the beginning of the 2024 season, Bogusevic says he expects shortstop Jeremy Pena to "take big steps forward" and outfielder Jake Meyers to bounce back from injury. Meyers' "confidence has taken a hit," but "there's plenty of talent there" and "regular playing time will go a long way." With the Astros a single win away from a World Series appearance last season, Bogusevic says the expectations for this season are the same.

"Fred is an extension of Ime Udoka" and "the embodiment of that coaching staff on the floor."]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>692</itunes:duration><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/2525e831096136f1b398b575227504ba.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>NFL Insider Aaron Wilson: Texans Took a "Big Swing" at Getting Keenan Allen</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/nfl-insider-aaron-wilson-texans-took-a-big-swing-at-getting-keenan-allen--59089651</link><description><![CDATA[KPRC reporter Aaron Wilson joins Next Up to discuss the Houston Texans attempting to trade for wide receiver Keenan Allen, who was traded to the Chicago Bears from the Los Angeles Chargers. According to Wilson, the Texans offered a 2025 third-round pick and were willing to take on Allen's contract. "They took a pretty big swing at it," Wilson said. "[Allen] would have been an outstanding mentor to some of these young receivers."

The Texans have already re-signed tight end Dalton Schultz and kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn, and Alexander says linebacker Blake Cashman is "most likely" to get a deal done by the end of the weekend. If the Texans don't sign Cashman before free agency officially begins on March 13, then Cashman "could be on his way out."

If the Texans don't sign Cashman before free agency officially begins on March 13, then Cashman "could be on his way out."

One rule change concerns onside kicks, allowing teams to only attempt the play when trailing in the fourth quarter, and they would have to announce the onside kick before kickoff. Owners will vote on the rules changes at the NFL's Annual League Meeting. College football is also looking to alter their format after the NCAA Football Rules Committee proposed changes that will align more closely with the NFL. The proposed changes, including helmet communications, in-game use of tablets and implementation of a two-minute warning, must be approved by the NCAA Playing Rules Oversight Panel.

College football is also looking to alter their format after the NCAA Football Rules Committee proposed changes that will align more closely with the NFL. The proposed changes, including helmet communications, in-game use of tablets and implementation of a two-minute warning, must be approved by the NCAA Playing Rules Oversight Panel.

"He came into a very difficult situation" and "did a fantastic job." Smith even offers his advice to the Texans as they begin to prepare for the 2024 season.

After news broke Tuesday that the Texans have retained offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik and quarterbacks coach Jerrod Johnson, Sharper previews the goals for next season. "You keep building on what you put down last year," and improve the run game because "the biggest part of running the football is closing out second halves."]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>955</itunes:duration><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/2525e831096136f1b398b575227504ba.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>Texans Insider Aaron Wilson Talks Retaining Bobby Slowik, Jerrod Johnson</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/texans-insider-aaron-wilson-talks-retaining-bobby-slowik-jerrod-johnson--58518521</link><description><![CDATA[KPRC reporter Aaron Wilson joins Stan Norfleet on Next Up to break down the Houston Texans retaining Bobby Slowik as offensive coordinator and Jerrod Johnson as quarterbacks coach.

After the loss to the Baltimore Ravens in the AFC Divisional playoff, the Texans saw the level of improvement they need to achieve "if they want to win these games," Alexander said. One of improvements the Texans will focus on in the offseason is strengthening position groups. According to Alexander, a priority should be signing another wide receiver. The Texans are "one injury short of being a one dimensional offense." The defensive line is also a focus. They need to resign Jonathan Greenard and Sheldon Rankins, but "they got to get more than that." Offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik and quarterback coach Jerrod Johnson have been interviewing for open positions around the league. However, Alexander predicts Slowik will stay in Houston, but Johnson "has a chance at getting one of those offensive coordinator jobs." The Texans 2024 schedule has been released, and "even though it will be a tough schedule," Alexander thinks "they can win the AFC South again."]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">https://api.spreaker.com/episode/58504846</guid><pubDate>Tue, 30 Jan 2024 19:02:26 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/api.spreaker.com/download/episode/58504846/jonathanalexander_01_30_2024.mp3" length="27430365" type="audio/mpeg"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/sounder/114b8080-6ac8-40ed-8f3c-bf6d8cc73fac/114b8080-6ac8-40ed-8f3c-bf6d8cc73fac.srt" type="application/x-subrip" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/sounder/114b8080-6ac8-40ed-8f3c-bf6d8cc73fac/114b8080-6ac8-40ed-8f3c-bf6d8cc73fac.txt" type="text/plain" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/sounder/114b8080-6ac8-40ed-8f3c-bf6d8cc73fac/114b8080-6ac8-40ed-8f3c-bf6d8cc73fac.vtt" type="text/vtt" language="en"/><itunes:author>SportsTalk 790 (KBME-AM)</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>Houston Chronicle writer Jonathan Alexander joins Next Up to preview offseason priorities and targeted free agents signings for the Houston Texans ahead of the 2024 season.

C.J. Stroud is in concussion protocol, but Schefter is not sure who will lead the offense against the Tennessee Titans. "I'm not ready to rule [Stroud] out just yet," Schefter said. "It's a longshot," but "until it happens, I'm not giving up hope." Backup quarterback Davis Mills will likely get the start if Stroud is out. "Davis Mills can get the job done if need be. I think he's a strong quarterback," Schefter said. As the Texans head to Nashville, Schefter predicts that the Titans will be a tough matchup. "They're coming off their biggest win of their season." Despite the loss against the Jets in week 14, Schefter still thinks highly of the Texans. "I believe they can win in the playoffs." Schefter also comments on New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick's future in the NFL and the controversial hip drop tackle. "That's going to be eliminated from the NFL."]]></description><guid isPermaLink="false">https://api.spreaker.com/episode/58010209</guid><pubDate>Thu, 14 Dec 2023 18:08:42 +0000</pubDate><enclosure url="https://dts.podtrac.com/redirect.mp3/api.spreaker.com/download/episode/58010209/adamschefter_12_14_2023.mp3" length="19819023" type="audio/mpeg"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/sounder/e243bd6b-d7cb-4466-bc33-e4fdeab8a749/e243bd6b-d7cb-4466-bc33-e4fdeab8a749.srt" type="application/x-subrip" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/sounder/e243bd6b-d7cb-4466-bc33-e4fdeab8a749/e243bd6b-d7cb-4466-bc33-e4fdeab8a749.txt" type="text/plain" language="en"/><podcast:transcript url="https://transcription.spreaker.com/sounder/e243bd6b-d7cb-4466-bc33-e4fdeab8a749/e243bd6b-d7cb-4466-bc33-e4fdeab8a749.vtt" type="text/vtt" language="en"/><itunes:author>SportsTalk 790 (KBME-AM)</itunes:author><itunes:subtitle>ESPN senior NFL insider Adam Schefter joins Next Up with Stan Norfleet and Chris Gordy to talk about the Houston Texans quarterback situation.

"There's a little bit of a drop-off" in his second year, but teams are also not targeting him as much. McCartan also critiques head coach Robert Saleh. "He's not a leader of men," rather he is "a cheerleader on these sidelines." McCartan concludes by saying the game is "going to be a lot closer than people are thinking," and MLB outfielder Juan Soto is "a perfect fit" for the New York Yankees.]]></itunes:summary><itunes:duration>820</itunes:duration><itunes:explicit>false</itunes:explicit><itunes:image href="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/t_rss_itunes_square_1400/images.spreaker.com/original/2525e831096136f1b398b575227504ba.jpg"/><itunes:episodeType>full</itunes:episodeType></item><item><title>Rockets Beat Thunder, Texans Head to New York, Astros Winter Meetings</title><link>https://www.spreaker.com/episode/rockets-beat-thunder-texans-head-to-new-york-astros-winter-meetings--57943868</link><description><![CDATA[Stan Norfleet and Chris Gordy of Next Up preview the Houston Texans against the New York Jets on Sunday.

The Rockets have lost their last four away games. "They've been competitive in all of them," but "what the Rockets don't have is a perimeter-based scorer and playmaker that can consistently make tough buckets late in a game," DuBose said.
