2021 Texans Draft

Texans Inner Circle and Fan of the Year
The Texans welcomed five players to Houston during the 2021 NFL Draft, but we could not have done it without the help of local teachers in our Inner Circle that traveled to Cleveland and the Texans Fan of the Year, Two Cans Dan, who announced our final pick.

The Houston Texans 2021 Inner Circle is comprised of our dedicated Season Ticket Members hand selected out of hundreds of nominations that are teachers and are fully vaccinated. These members received a free trip to the NFL Draft in Cleveland and will be a part of exclusive experiences.

Texans 2021 Schedule Release

The Houston Texans partnered with TikTok Star Alissa, also known as the "Fried Rice Artist," to design artwork made out of colored rice to represent each of the Texans 2021 Opponents.

Sensory Bin Donation
As for leftovers, there were none in the making of the Texans 2021 schedule release! We used the grains of colored rice to assemble educational sensory bins for kids. These bins not only include rice from the video shoot, but also Texans fidget spinners, Texans casino chips, Texans football player figures and coins.

To unveil the Texans 2021 schedule, Fried Rice Artist Alissa tossed a piece of artwork to represent each of the Texans opponents.
