The Houston Texans have made a number of splashes this offseason, something that has pleased ownership.

"We want to win now," Hannah McNair said.

The highest profile move made by the Texans was this month's trade with the Buffalo Bills for Stefon Diggs.

"Our boys, when they heard the Stefon Diggs news, were screaming around the house," McNair said, "and then their friends said their teacher stopped class to tell everyone, so there's quite a buzz amongst the younger generation about the guys that we brought in, so that's exciting."

As part of their blockbuster trade to acquire wide receiver Stefon Diggs, the Houston Texans wiped out the final three years on his contract, giving him the ability to become a free agent after this season, league sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

The Texans also took the $3.5 million guaranteed to Diggs next season and moved up into this season, giving him a raise and assuring him of $22.52 million in guaranteed money in 2024.

The Houston Texans have agreed to acquire Stefon Diggs from the Buffalo Bills for Minnesota's 2025 second round pick. The Texans will also receive a 2024 sixth round pick and a 2025 fifth round pick.

Digs signed a four-year, $96 million contract extension with the Bills in 2022. There was an expectation that Diggs and the Bills would restructure his contract this offseason. Buffalo will carry a $31 million dead cap number in 2024 following the trade.

During the 2023 season, Diggs caught 107 balls for 1,183 yards and eight touchdowns. 

Diggs is represented by Adisa Bakari.

Saquon Barkley made headlines when he signed with the Philadelphia Eagles earlier this month.

However, Barkley admitted on the "New Heights" podcast with Jason and Travis Kelce that the Eagles weren't the first team he considered when he realized he'd be leaving the New York Giants.

"I'm gonna be honest here, that's what the show is for. The first team that had my real interest was Houston [Texans]," the running back said. "I got to communicate with C.J. [Stroud] and a couple of those boys. But this was before you could actually put offers on the table and talk to teams."

The Texans ended up acquiring Joe Mixon in a trade with the Cincinnati Bengals and signing him to a contract extension.

League owners will vote on whether to approve Houston Texans chairman and CEO Cal McNair as the franchise's new principal owner at the NFL owners' meeting, according to a source.

The vote is expected to take place on Tuesday morning.

Bob McNair, the Texans' former owner, died in November 2018. His wife, Janice McNair, became the Texans' principal owner and is one of 10 women who are principal owners.

After his father's death, Cal took over the Texans' daily football procedures and has represented the team at owner's meetings in place of Janice.

The expected vote, which was first reported by The Houston Chronicle, doesn't mean the team is available for purchase, as a source labeled the Texans as not for sale and "have no plans for that."

Before he was traded from the Chargers to the Bears on Thursday, wide receiver Keenan Allen revealed that Los Angeles had permitted him to explore several options for where he wanted to continue his career after spending 11 seasons with the franchise.

"There were a couple teams that they would allow me, I guess, to say where I wanted to go," Allen said Saturday. "I only had like two teams."

The Minnesota Vikings have acquired the No. 23 overall pick from the Houston Texans in the 2024 NFL draft.

The Vikings sent No. 42, No. 188 and a second rounder in 2025 to acquire No. 23 and No. 232.

The Houston Texans are giving Joe Mixon a three-year, $27 million contract extension just days after acquiring him in a trade with the Cincinnati Bengals.

The running back will receive $13 million in guaranteed money, according to sources.

Houston traded a 2024 seventh-round pick to Cincinnati for Mixon after he was expected to be released.

"I gotta say it was definitely shocking," Mixon said of the trade. "I took that 24 to 48 hours to hurt. It took a while and I'm still having emotional feelings about it. But that's the place where I can forever feel like that's home for me."

Danielle Hunter has agreed to sign with the Houston Texans on a two-year, $49 million deal.

The deal includes $48 million in guaranteed money and has a maximum value of $51 million.

The addition of Hunter will give the Texans a formidable pass-rushing duo of Hunter and 2023 NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year Will Anderson Jr., who had seven sacks in his first season.

The Houston Texans have acquired Joe Mixon from the Cincinnati Bengals.

The Bengals had planned to release Mixon as they signed Zack Moss to replace him at running back.

The Texans entered the offseason with a need at running back.
