The Houston Texans have secured the AFC South title for the second consecutive season following their 20-12 victory over the Miami Dolphins, combined with the Denver Broncos’ win over the Indianapolis Colts. This marks the third time in franchise history that the Texans have won back-to-back division titles, and the eighth time overall. Under the leadership of head coach DeMeco Ryans and quarterback C.J. Stroud, who joined the franchise in 2023, the organization has achieved a second consecutive postseason appearance, with Ryans orchestrating the team’s success in his first head-coaching gig in the NFL.
