It seems only fair to end the preseason that we let another team host a Houston Texans preseason game. The Texans have traversed the Appalachians and arrived in Charlotte to take on the Panthers in a game that will make the difference between who makes the roster and who doesn’t (gee, how insightful), so expect to see a lot of future grocery shelf stockers giving it their all tonight.
But after this, all the football counts. We’re so close to the end of The Empty Season, I can almost taste it.
Who:
Houston Texans at Carolina Panthers What: Preseason Week 3 Where: Bank of America Stadium – Charlotte, NC When: Friday August 28, 2026 Why: To determine which players will get to call themselves Houston Texans to start the season. How: TV: KTRK 13 ABC (local-live), NFL Network (national-will be played midnight August 30); Radio: 95.7 The Fan (local-English), Mega 101 FM (local-Spanish); Streaming: Audacy app, Houston Texans app, NFL+
Enjoy the game y’all. Because the next time we see y’all, it’ll be Texans game day for real!
Go Texans!
