Houston Texans: All-time leaders in rushing yards

The Houston Texans entered the NFL in 2002 and haven’t had many dominating running backs, at least many who showed long-term durability.

Today’s NFL is more of a work of running back by committee. Some teams work under the philosophy that they can just plug someone in at the position. The players on this list show that both a premier back, or someone you plug in, can have success.

The Texans have never placed much emphasis on running backs early in drafts. They’ve never selected a running back in the first round and only taken one in the second round twice.
