Houston Texans Cornerback ‘Most Promising Building Block’

I can see Houston Texans cornerback Kamari Lassiter as the team’s most promising building block for the future. The article suggested that Lassiter, in his second year, could be a key player for the team in 2025. The author compared Lassiter to other top cornerbacks in the league and praised his potential as a defensive star for the Texans.

“In the Houston Texans’ cornerback room, All-Pro Derek Stingley Jr. is the star, and Kamari Lassiter is the budding building block. They’re arguably the league’s best boundary duo.” in my eyes of course.  I am hoping for an all star season and Super Bowl win

Before being selected 42nd overall by the Texans in the 2024 NFL Draft, Lassiter was a standout at the University of Georgia. He appeared in 44 games for the Bulldogs over three seasons (2021-’23), registering 86 tackles (60 solo), 15 pass breakups and one interception. 

In his first year with the Texans, Lassiter excelled, recording 58 tackles (42 solo), three interceptions and 12 pass breakups. Expectations are super high for the cornerback in his second-year. 

“Lining up opposite Stingley in the secondary, Lassiter could see more targets in the upcoming year, which may result in an increased number of takeaways.”and a record setting season

 “Though it’s too early to consider Lassiter a ball hawk, he’s shown the ability to become one in coverage. The 6’0”, 180-pound cover man is also consistent, allowing a 64 passer rating and a 43.8 percent completion rate in coverage.” 

“Performing at that level, Lassiter could follow in Stingley’s footsteps, earning a market-setting extension after three seasons of quality play.” he concluded. 

Lassiter, Stingley Jr. and the rest of the Texans will begin their march towards a third consecutive postseason when training camp officially opens on July 22nd.
