Derek Stingley Jr. has been one of the best defensive backs since entering the league in 2022 and DeMeco Ryans has a comparison for his All-Pro corner

Houston Texans cornerback Derek Stingley Jr. has developed into one of the league's top defensive backs after turning in a first-team All-Pro campaign in 2024. For the second consecutive season, Stingley finished with five interceptions to lead the Texans in that category.

Texans player Jimmie Ward is now facing a $20 million lawsuit tied to his arrest earlier this year. Coach DeMeco Ryans addressed Ward's legal issues yesterday.

Asked what corners he's seen with as good hands as Derek Stingley Jr., Houston Texans coach DeMeco Ryans pointed to Hall of Famer Deion Sanders.

Texans should trade for Colts’ DeForest Buckner before Week 1 of 2025 season to strengthen defensive front and boost Super Bowl chances.

Ryans gave out plenty of respect to Lions players after what was a very back-and-forth practice on both sides of the ball. The Texans had to make adjustments on defense, in particular, trying to get used to how much speed the Lions come with and their knack for explosive plays.

“We’re really excited to get to Detroit and go against the Lions,” Texans coach DeMeco Ryans said. “As we talked about all week, it’ll be a great opportunity for us to go and compete against a really good football team, competitive team. Looking to see where we stack up versus this team. So, very excited to get to work.”

Texans RB Nick Chubb is rounding back into form as the four-time Pro Bowler hit holes and pushed piles in Houston’s preseason win over the Carolina Panthers.

After missing last season's regular-season matchup with the Lions, this former Wolverine is excited to be breathing Michigan air again.
