Houston Texans have quickly become the Houston Trojans
The Houston Texans are building a roster of USC Trojans, going to the Men of Troy for a third straight NFL draft. There are now 5 USC Texans
USC has produced many high-caliber players for the NFL. USC has not distributed players to any team in recent years as much as the Houston Texans . The team has continued to hit with players from USC.
This year the Texans went that route again by selecting Kamari Ramsey in the fifth round. Here is the list of USC Trojans that are now on the Texans: Defensive end Solomon Byrd Solomon Byrd did not see the field at all last season, and in 2024, he only managed to see 1 game of action. In that game, he tallied 2 solo tackles and a pass interception.
Demeco Ryans loves depth on the defensive line, especially, but Byrd will be a player who will have to have a great camp to hold onto his roster spot. In his final season at USC, he showed great promise for being a potential high-quality rotational player, as he tallied 11 TFLs and 6 sacks. He needs to get back to being a distributor, or he could end up being on the outs after training camp.
Safety Calen Bullock Calen Bullock, so far, has been the best former Trojan on the Texans. In just two seasons, he has become a building block for Houston and is a big part of the best secondary in the NFL. Bullock, in his two seasons, has posted 9 interceptions, 21 pass deflections, and 115 tackles.
