Chronological Timeline
4 Recorded Trades
Trade 1 of 4
Houston Texans and Philadelphia Eagles
Houston acquired C.J. Gardner-Johnson and a 2026 sixth-round choice from Philadelphia for Kenyon Green and a 2026 fifth-round choice. Gardner-Johnson started the Texans' first three games and made 15 tackles before Houston released him. Green also failed to stick in Philadelphia, so neither veteran became a lasting centerpiece and the one-round draft-position difference keeps the return close.
Assets Received
Philadelphia Eagles
- Player Kenyon Green
- Pick 2026 fifth-round pick (#167, later traded)
Houston Texans
- Player C.J. Gardner-Johnson
- Pick 2026 sixth-round pick (#203, later traded)

Trade 2 of 4
Houston Texans and Philadelphia Eagles
Houston traded John Metchie III and a 2026 sixth-rounder to Philadelphia for Harrison Bryant and a 2026 fifth-rounder. The teams were effectively returning draft choices they had exchanged in an earlier deal. Houston improved its draft position and added an experienced tight end, while Philadelphia gained receiver depth and later recycled Metchie in the Michael Carter II trade.
Assets Received
Philadelphia Eagles
- Player John Metchie III
- Pick 2026 sixth-round pick (#203, later moved in the Tank Bigsby trade)
Houston Texans
- Player Harrison Bryant
- Pick 2026 fifth-round pick (#167, later moved; Jalon Kilgore selected)

Trade 3 of 4
Buffalo Bills and Houston Texans
Houston moved from No. 28 to No. 26 in the 2026 first round, sending Buffalo picks 28, 69 and 167 for picks 26 and 91. The Texans used No. 26 on guard Keylan Rutledge, while Buffalo quickly moved No. 28 again and continued reshaping its draft capital. With the rookie class still awaiting regular-season results, neither side has earned a meaningful historical edge.
Assets Received
Buffalo Bills
- Pick 2026 first-round pick, No. 28 overall, later traded to New England
- Pick 2026 third-round pick, No. 69 overall, later traded
- Pick 2026 fifth-round pick, No. 167 overall, used on Jalen Kilgore
Houston Texans
- Pick 2026 first-round pick, No. 26 overall, used on Keylan Rutledge
- Pick 2026 third-round pick, No. 91 overall, later traded

Trade 4 of 4
Houston Texans and Buffalo Bills
Houston moved from No. 28 to No. 26 and also received No. 91, sending Buffalo picks 28, 69 and 167. The Texans used No. 26 on Keylan Rutledge, prioritizing a specific first-round target, while Buffalo accumulated extra Day 2 and Day 3 value. Houston gets the slight early edge only because it secured its preferred player; the broader draft-value exchange gave Buffalo several chances to outperform it.
Assets Received
Houston Texans
- Pick 2026 first-round pick, No. 26 overall, used on Keylan Rutledge
- Pick 2026 third-round pick, No. 91 overall
Buffalo Bills
- Pick 2026 first-round pick, No. 28 overall
- Pick 2026 third-round pick, No. 69 overall
- Pick 2026 fifth-round pick, No. 167 overall, used on Jalon Kilgore
