Texans evaluate rookie Kayden McDonald before season opener against Buffalo Bills

Houston Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans says the team has significant depth at the defensive tackle position as they prepare for the season opener. Second-round pick Kayden McDonald is listed as questionable for the game after suffering an ankle injury late in training camp. Ryans expressed confidence in the current defensive rotation, which includes Tommy Togiai, Sheldon Rankins, Logan Hall, and Mario Edwards Jr. The Texans host the Buffalo Bills this weekend with a Noon CT kickoff. The defensive unit faces the challenge of containing Buffalo quarterback Josh Allen. Houston looks to improve upon its previous performance against Buffalo, which resulted in a 23-19 loss last season.
