Every offseason, the NFL awards compensatory draft picks to teams who essentially lost more than they gained in free agency in the previous year. Comp picks are awarded beginning at the end of the third round.

After their loss to the Chiefs on Saturday, the Texans—one of two 10–7 teams to make the divisional round—are locked in at the No. 25 pick in the 2025 draft. Even if the Los Angeles Rams (10–7) lose to the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday, Houston will remain at No. 25 because they have a lower strength of schedule (.481) than the Rams (.505).

The Texans own the 25th overall pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. After their Divisional Round loss at Kansas City on Saturday, the Texans now know they'll pick 25th overall when the Draft begins Thursday, April 24th in Green Bay, Wisconsin.
