‘Worth Taking a Flyer On’ — NFL Reporter Lists Chiefs, Texans Among Landing Spots for 8-Time Pro Bowler
With less than a month remaining before the new season kicks off, the focus for many teams is on training camp and the preseason to make internal improvements to the roster. However, as injuries alter their roster dynamics, some might look to add more talent to their locker room.
With less than a month until the new NFL season commences, teams are focusing on roster improvements, either for training camp or the preseason. However, some teams may look to add more talent due to injuries altering their roster dynamics. According to NFL analyst Ryan Wilson from CBS Sports, the Kansas City Chiefs and Houston Texans fall into this category.
The Chiefs, who barely made any moves to improve their wide receiver corps, finished 13th on PFN’s Offense Impact Metric last season. Meanwhile, the Texans dropped to 21st after losing potential starters C.J. Stroud and Nico Collins to injuries, along with Tank Dell being out for the entire season. Neither team has made major upgrades to their passing game, relying on improved health for the upcoming season.
Wilson pointed out that Tyreek Hill, the eight-time Pro Bowler, could significantly impact a team in the latter part of the season, even if at a reduced capacity. He suggested that the Texans, who recently lost Jayden Higgins to a torn ACL, could be a contender for Hill. Additionally, Wilson also mentioned the Kansas City Chiefs, who had a dynamic receiving corps prior to the season, as a potential landing spot.
Lastly, he suggested the Los Angeles Chargers as another possible option, given Hill’s agent confirming that he might sign with a team closer to the playoffs.
