The Job Isn’t Done! 😤 What’s Next for the Houston Texans After Adding David Montgomery?

The job isn’t done in Houston… not even close.

The Houston Texans made a splash with the addition of David Montgomery — but what’s next in building a truly competitive roster in 2026? 👀

On today’s episode of Locked On Texans, we’re keeping it REAL.

Offensive coordinator Nick Caley talked about how personnel dictates scheme — how the offense evolves based on what guys can and can’t do. So let’s ask the tough question:

👉 Does Houston actually have the right personnel?
👉 Why is the offensive line STILL in a constant rebuild?
👉 And why does everybody get CHEAP when it comes to tight end?!

Enough is enough.

Late-round tight end experiments haven’t worked. Settling hasn’t worked. Hoping hasn’t worked. It’s time for the Texans to invest REAL draft capital or real money into a difference-maker at TE — whether that’s in free agency or early in the NFL Draft. Stop gambling on Day 3 and expecting Day 1 results. That’s what’s making me MAD.

Plus — let’s talk draft drama.

If Ty Simpson starts slipping… should Houston flirt with trading back? If a quarterback-needy team offers a future 2nd and 4th to move up for Simpson — do you pull the trigger?

Short answer? Yes.
Long answer? Tune in.

We’re breaking down:

What Montgomery really changes for this offense

Why the O-line rebuild philosophy has to change

The tight end frustration Texans fans are DONE with

Draft strategy: trade back or stand firm?

This episode is for day-one fans and new fans trying to understand what’s REALLY happening inside NRG.
