The Houston Texans (1-1) will continue their preseason slate with their first home matchup against the New York Giants (1-0) at NRG Stadium come Saturday afternoon.
Starters are expected to play. For how long? That remains a mystery, though it should be more than two series like in last week’s win over the Pittsburgh Steelers. Offensive tackle Laremy Tunsil is back and so is Joe Mixon, so the duo should be ready to make their 2024 debuts.
There’s plenty of insight heading into the game found on Texans Wire, but for information on how to watch or listen to the game, read below.
