THE SCARY SILENCE: Texans Quietly Land Super Bowl Champion After Trade Deadline — DeMeco Ryans’ “Silent Move” Could Change Everything…
In the chaos of post–trade deadline silence, the Houston Texans made a move that barely made a sound — but could echo loudly in the weeks to come. Head coach DeMeco Ryans and the front office have officially signed veteran kicker Matthew Wright, a Super Bowl champion and one of the league’s most traveled specialists.
Wright, 29, joins his eighth NFL team, bringing championship DNA from his time with the Kansas City Chiefs in 2022. Despite bouncing between organizations — including the Jaguars, Steelers, 49ers, Titans, Panthers, and Commanders — Wright has quietly built a résumé defined by resilience, adaptability, and a knack for performing when pressure peaks.
The signing came just hours after the trade window closed, a period when most teams stand still. But for the Texans, it was an opportunity to stabilize a crucial position. Wright enters Houston having made 15 of 16 field goals in 2024, including a 46-yard long, and converting 83.7% of his kicks over the last three seasons — ranking among the league’s most reliable journeymen.
With the Texans chasing playoff contention, every point matters — and every quiet move counts. DeMeco Ryans’ decision to add a proven winner like Wright could be the difference between heartbreak and history.
