• Texans' Luke Lachey: Nabbed by Texans in seventh round

  Rotowire Apr 26, 2025

  The Texans selected Lachey in the seventh round of the 2025 NFL Draft, 255th overall. Lachey racked up 28 catches in two different seasons (2022 and 2024) at Iowa, adding 231 receiving yards last season. Sandwiched in the middle was a significant ankle injury in 2023 that cost him all but three games. He managed only 8.3 yards per reception in 2024 after averaging at least 13.1 yards per catch in each of the three years prior. Lachey doesn't possess elite speed to stretch the field but should be serviceable as a run blocker if called upon and will try to claim a 53-man roster spot in camp.
