History
- The Browns have a 7-7 all-time record against the Texans.
- The last time these two teams met in the regular season was in Houston on December 24, 2023, when the Browns defeated the Texans 36-22. It was a much bigger blowout than the score indicated, as the Browns were up 36-7 half-way through the fourth quarter. That was the day that Joe Flacco threw for 368 yards, including Amari Cooper having 265 yards receiving and 2 touchdowns. Unfortunately, the Browns were blown out in the re-match a few weeks later in the postseason. The Texans had Davis Mills at quarterback for that first game, and then C.J. Stroud returned for the playoffs.
- The Browns have won four straight regular season games against the Texans.
