The Houston Texans appear to have fallen victim to another leak.
The team plans to unveil new uniforms later this month but has had gear exposed for the second time in the space of a few days. A video has surfaced online showing a helmet believed to be the AFC side’s new alternate shell for 2024.
A Twitter/X user going by the name Freddy posted a clip of a helmet matching the hints dropped by the team over the last few weeks.
“Got a homie that loads trailers and they got this from Riddell today,” he shared as part of a tweet that has since been deleted.
The short video shows someone holding the helmet near several Riddell boxes. Riddell is the NFL‘s official helmet manufacturer.
Of course, it wasn’t deleted quickly enough. You can check it out here:
“I am a titans fan and objectively the helmet is nice. But I can’t see this being real because it is the two almost exact same shades of blue with red trim,” one fan noted. “Even a red star, it’s just too similar to the titans colors imo unless the titans switching up to the oilers look full time.”
“good luck getting a job bro,” another offered.

The Houston Texans Appeared To Acknowledge The Leak
The Houston Texans seem to have reacted to the shells leaking, taking to X to post a GIF of a leaking faucet.
The team’s new away threads were leaked on Reddit earlier this year, forcing them to confirm it and post high-resolution images of the new design. It’s why some fans don’t appreciate the shell getting exposed online prematurely.
Houston will officially unveil their new uniform set on April 23.
