The Texans are hoping new safety Reed Blankenship can use his Super Bowl experience to help guide Houston to one.
Blankenship believes Houston’s defense can go far after a stellar campaign during the 2025 season.
“Like you said, they’re already a really talented group,” Blankenship said Wednesday at his introductory press conference, via the team’s transcripts. “I want to come in and contribute as much as I can. But there shouldn’t be any fall off. That’s my mindset. There should not be any fall off. If anything, like I said before, there should be a sense of calmness. There’s going to be another communicator in the back end.
“I feel like the sky’s the limit for this secondary, for sure. I know all these guys are bought in. Why wouldn’t you want to be? They all want to win. We have a winning mindset. I can already feel that in the building. I’m super excited to get to work with these guys and really start to build relationships with them.”
