The Houston Texans picked up the 2027 fifth-year option on All-Pro defensive end Will Anderson on Wednesday, a source told ESPN's Field Yates. Anderson will be due $21.512 million in 2027, and he's now extension-eligible. Picking up Anderson's fifth-year option was a no-brainer after he produced 23 sacks in the last two seasons. The 24-year-old was taken with the third overall pick in the 2023 NFL draft out of Alabama, and he has emerged as a high-end pass-rusher for a strong Texans defense. In 17 regular-season games in 2025, Anderson had a career-high 54 tackles (35 solo), a career-high 12 sacks, 20 tackles for loss, 23 QB hits, three pass breakups, three forced fumbles, and two fumble recoveries (one returned for a touchdown). Going into his fourth year in the NFL, the two-time Pro Bowler will once again be a popular defensive-line target in IDP fantasy formats. Anderson finished as the No. 6 defensive lineman in IDP formats in 2025.--Keith Hernandez
