Derek Barnett is emerging as a key player for the Houston Texans in 2025. Initially drafted by the Philadelphia Eagles as a first-round pick, Barnett's move to the Texans saw him become an underrated pass-rusher, often overshadowed by stars like Will Anderson Jr. and Derek Stingley Jr. Despite being the Texans' No. 3 pass-rusher, his skills would likely earn him a starting position on many other teams. His ability to impact games from the defensive line is becoming more recognized, making him a player to watch as the season progresses.
