HOUSTON — The Houston Texans held their fifth day of training camp practice at the Houston Methodist Training Center. Monday was the last day of the Texans’ ramp-up period, as the team will begin padded practices starting on Tuesday.
“The significance of that, now we get to play football,” head coach David Culley said. “Guys won’t be as hesitant. When you are in shells and shorts, you kinda hold back when you get to the ball. Once you get pads on, we are running through things and finishing a lot better. With pads on, you are protected. That’s football.”
Here are five observations from the fifth Texans practice on the sixth day of training camp.
