Texans draft two-time All-American Indiana standout LB Aiden Fisher
Perhaps the best pick of Day 3 was saved for last. And of course, the Houston Texans wanted a champion to join the squad.
Perhaps the best pick of Day 3 was saved for last. Of course, the Houston Texans wanted a champion to join the squad. With pick No.
243, the Texans landed Indiana linebacker Adien Fisher to bolster the second level of the defense. He should be considered a fan favorite and a Day 3 gem should he transform into the next standout for DeMeco Ryans' defense. Fisher ended his time in Bloomington as the programโs first defender to earn multiple All-America nods.
He becomes the first Hoosiers linebacker to be drafted since Micah McFadden, who was selected in the fifth round of the 2022 draft by the New York Giants . As part of the class that followed Curt Cignetti from James Madison to Indiana , Fisher was the anchor of the Hoosiers' defense for two years under Bryant Haines. Fisher finished second on the team with 97 tackles, marking his third straight season with more than 95 tackles.
For his career, he racked up over 300 career tackles. Another one for the 713. pic.
