In the middle of April, we'll know the Texans regular season schedule for 2016. Their opponents, home and away, are set.
In addition to playing the three AFC South teams once at NRG Stadium and once on the road, the Texans will also face the AFC West and the NFC North. Because they won their division, the Texans will face the AFC East champion Patriots in New England and AFC North title winning Bengals at NRG Stadium.
