Good day for Berrios who is trying to fight his way on this roster.
Something I had talked about throughout camp was that I didn’t get the Ed Ingram being over Juice Scruggs depth chart wise.
I do understand now why that is the case, I still think there is a path for Scruggs to be a good lineman but he struggles with power and has throughout his career so that is likely not going to play in this new offensive scheme under Caley.
Scruggs might be one of those guys who gets flipped at cutdown day to a more west coast style team that can do what he excels at.
A interesting note from @LandryLocker that Nick Caley was in the booth yesterday vs the Vikings:
I didn’t notice this during the game but I’ve always thought it would be easier for a OC like to see the development of plays and defenses in the moment so I think it could be a
John Metchie’s first preseason game vs the Vikings:
8 Targets
5 Catches
45 Yards
69.9 PFF Grade
2.25 Y/RR
2 Missed Tackles Forced
Would you include Metchie on your 53-man roster as of now?
Texans Personnel Usage in Preseason Week 1 via NFL Pro:
11 Personnel - 62.3%
12 Personnel - 37.7%
11 Per. when in Shotgun - 96.6%
12 Per. when Under Center - 79.2%
There was plenty of each even while trailing including a decent amount of Jakob Johnson at FB/TE.

What stands out?
NICK CALEY’S IMPACT IN HOUSTON:
- The Texans were under center on 45% of their offensive snaps which would have been #1 in UC% last year.
- The Texans had 52% of their throws considered “quick” which is under 2.5 seconds, Stroud’s average TTT last year was 2.97.
- They were blitzed 17 times allowing a 41% pressure rate on the blitzes (average among NFL starters last year was right around 40-41%)
- The Texans allowed a 33.3% QBP on 36 total dropbacks.
Nick Caley has a vision for Houston.
The Texans signed Former Eagles DB Jalen Mills via @AdamSchefter
A very good depth option in the secondary who has dealt with some injuries so far in camp.
The Texans running behind Aireontae Ersery today via @PFF:

20 Yards
6.7 YPA
They averaged 4 YPC BEFORE contact on those runs.
