From the article

It is Montgomery. Joe Mixon gave them zero yards last season, so anything Montgomery gives them is more. In particular, he hopefully will be more effective in the red zone than Woody Marks was.

Montgomery is Texans' most important 2026 addition; replaces ineffective Mixon.

Montgomery is the most important addition to the Texans offense in 2026; he replaces Joe Mixon, who produced zero yards last season, and is expected to be more effective in the red zone than Woody Marks was, generating more first downs and time of possession plays that align with Houston's ball-control offensive strategy.
