Even after the Houston Texans made wholesale changes across their offensive line in the offseason as an attempt to make up for the fact that the unit was one of the worst in the NFL in 2024, there wasn't much more than lukewarm optimism that the group would actually be improved in 2025.
Sure, there was reason to believe that four fresh faces and a new offensive scheme might, in the best case scenario, result in moderate improvements, but based on the talent alone, there remained more questions than you'd like.
Take for example Ed Ingram, the Texans starter at right guard who Houston landed in the offseason for the price of a 6th Round draft pick.
