Houston Texans’ Brevin Jordan continues to show confidence and development

Brevin Jordan made one of the most critical plays of the 2023 season for the Houston Texans. With the Texans holding possession on 1st and 10 early in the second half, quarterback CJ Stroud completed a pass to Jordan during the Wild Card round of the 2023 playoffs in early January.

At the time, the Texans were trailing the Cleveland Browns 14-10. However, Jordan recorded a 76-yard touchdown run to give the Texans a lead they didn’t relinquish in the middle of a 45-14 playoff victory.

Jordan’s play became an illustration of the Texans’ success. But five months later, his touchdown against the Browns is one of many examples coach DeMeco Ryans has used to show how players can maintain their confidence and progression during OTAs and mandatory minicamps.

“I show plays from practice, from previous practice in our team meetings,” Ryans said. “I show a clip of Brevin every day. He has a highlight, Brevin plays so fast, so decisive, and he makes some really good catches, tough catches.”

Jordan embodies how staying the course can eventually lead to a player’s increased development and confidence. Going into last season, there was a lot of uncertainty surrounding his role, given his sophomore season ended with a handful of good scratches.

He knew his third year was decisive for his career. Jordan spent most of the offseason improving his skills and durability. The results led him to appear in 16 games between the regular season and the playoffs, where he recorded 219 yards on 17 catches and two touchdowns last season.

“He’s done a great job this offseason as well,” Ryans said. “Man, he’s gotten better. I see him, he’s confident and he believes he’s a guy, and he can be a guy for us, and he is. And I’m excited to see that confidence that Brevin demonstrates throughout OTAs.”
