Houston’s linebacker depth took a major hit when Jake Hansen went down with a foot injury early in training camp, adding to the woes after veteran EJ Speed’s quad setback. With the Texans scrambling to fill the void, they’re eyeing seasoned free agents Sione Takitaki and Jahlani Tavai—both with over 80 NFL games under their belts. Takitaki brings a decade of experience from stops with Cleveland, New England, and Minnesota, while Tavai, who even played in last year’s Super Bowl, posted 42 tackles and a forced fumble for New England. Both could step into the critical linebacker three role behind Al-Shaair and TooToo as the Texans gear up for the season.
