About the Houston Texans
The Houston Texans joined the NFL as an expansion franchise in 2002, the league's newest team at the time, and play home games at NRG Stadium in Houston, notable for being the first NFL venue built with a retractable roof. Houston's AFC South rivalry with the Indianapolis Colts, Jacksonville Jaguars, and Tennessee Titans has intensified as the Texans have grown from an expansion club into a consistent divisional contender. Defensive end J.J. Watt, a three-time NFL Defensive Player of the Year, headlined the franchise's most dominant defensive stretch and remains its most decorated player. As one of the league's youngest franchises, the Texans have built their identity around aggressive drafting and a fast-improving roster, culminating in recent playoff appearances behind a new young quarterback core. NRG Stadium's retractable roof allows the Texans to control conditions against Houston's notoriously hot and humid fall climate, giving the franchise a genuine home-field advantage during afternoon kickoffs.
