The Houston Texans have acquired defensive tackle Naquan Jones from the San Francisco 49ers, adding a 6-foot-3, 313-pound veteran to their defensive line rotation. Jones, who spent time with the 49ers organization, brings NFL experience to a Texans unit looking to bolster its interior presence.
The move was reported on November 2, 2026, with the Texans securing the defensive lineman away from San Francisco's roster. Jones has previously seen action in the league and provides depth at a position where size and run-stopping ability are at a premium.
Financial terms of the transaction were not immediately disclosed. The addition comes as Houston continues to shape its roster during the regular season, addressing needs along the defensive front with a player familiar with the professional game.
