AAF Week 1: 5 Players the Houston Texans should watch now

For the first time in a long time there is meaningful football after the Super Bowl. No, it’s not the CFL, nor is it the AFL, rather it’s real, All-American football that your grandfather would be happy to watch.

Yup, it’s the Alliance of American Football (AAF), which is a league with the sole goal of developing talent for the NFL. The Houston Texans “affiliate” team is the San Antonio Commanders, who featured former Texans such as Kurtis Drummond, and Kennan Gilchrist. But, that doesn’t mean the Texans don’t have their pick of the litter, as they can sign any player to a future contract no matter which affiliation that team has to the NFL.
