I’ve loved playing in the AFC South for years, and there’s always just good competition there. Just being able to join the Texans, it’s pretty exciting because, you know, they’re a high-level team. I’m really excited about what they’re doing. They have a stellar defense, C.J. Stroud, a great quarterback. I’m excited to join the offensive line and hopefully be able to help them out as much as I can and just do my part to help the team have success.” (Aaron Wilson)
