  Anderson finished the 2024 regular season with 37 total tackles (27 solo), including 11.0 sacks, while also adding two passes defensed, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery across 14 games. Anderson took a step up in sack production in his second year in the NFL, increasing his output from 7.0 as a rookie in 2023 to 11.0 in 2024. The 23-year-old was also able to record his first forced fumble and first fumble recovery this season. Anderson appears to be trending toward being one of the more significant pass rushers in the league ahead of 2025.

  Anderson was a full participant in Tuesday's practice. The pass rusher was a healthy scratch in Houston's regular-season finale against the Titans, though it was likely just a precaution with the Texans locked into the AFC's No. 4 seed. Anderson recorded 37 tackles (27 solo), including 11.0 sacks, two pass breakups, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery in 14 regular-season games this year. He should be a full go for Houston's wild-card matchup with the Chargers on Saturday.
