The Houston Texans can’t lock up the No. 3 seed on Christmas Day, but a win at NRG Stadium can get them one step closer to a better playoff bid.

Houston heads home for the holidays with a Week 17 showdown against the Baltimore Ravens. Baltimore, led by potential MVP candidate Lamar Jackson and former Tennessee Titans bully Derrick Henry, will look to clinch the AFC North Division title in the Week 18 season finale.

CJ Stroud’s sophomore slump continues. He’s still a solid player who should be considered the franchise’s signal-caller, but his magic as Offensive Rookie of the Year has since faded in an overall disappointing season.

What about Joe Mixon? Is he still on track to finish with over 1,000 yards in his first year with the Texans? Can Nico Collins win back-to-back 1K seasons against one of the league’s more capable secondary players on Wednesday?

How about the duo of Will Anderson Jr. and Danielle Hunter? Are they still in the first three bags at the start of Christmas morning?

We track where Texas players land in several key categories. Here’s a look at Week 17.
