Derek Barnett’s move to the Browns clears a spot on the Texans’ defensive line — but Houston’s response is even more impactful: they’ve brought back Jadeveon Clowney, the former No. 1 pick who led the Cowboys in sacks last season. Signed to a one-year deal, Clowney isn’t expected to be the lead rusher, but his presence adds another elite threat to a rotation already anchored by Will Anderson Jr. and Danielle Hunter. This smart, veteran-led strategy keeps key players fresh while giving young talents like Kayden McDonald room to grow — all while building a deeper, more disruptive pass-rushing unit ready to dominate the regular season.
