Training camp is officially underway at the Methodist Training Center as the Houston Texans prepare to claim a third straight AFC South title.
After another eventual offseason, the Texans look poised to compete in the AFC as a heavy-hitter with impeccable upside on offense. Despite losing Pro Bowl left tackle Laremy Tunsil, the Texans feel confident in their offensive personnel thanks to new coordinator Nick Caley from Los Angeles. A wiz with offensive linemen, Caley should scheme up personnel looks that takes pressure off the backfield and passing attack, giving Stroud more time to attack.

Defensively, Houston should have a top-five unit in the league after targeting top names in free agency. Internally, the Texans inked deals with All-Pro cornerback Derek Stingley Jr., defensive end Danielle Hunter and nickel defender Jalen Pitre. Externally, they traded for Eagles defensive back C.J. Gardner-Johnson and signed defensive tackle Sheldon Rankins.
Here, several players are seen getting ready for the start of training camp. Take a look below:
