The Las Vegas Raiders welcome the Houston Texans in Week 7. Here are three players the Silver and Black must keep an eye on.

The Las Vegas Raiders come off their bye week and welcome the Houston Texans to Allegiant Stadium on Sunday. If the Silver and Black hope to make up significant ground in the division, they need to take advantage of a soft schedule on the horizon.

The NFL season is a marathon, not a sprint, and the Raiders must take it week-by-week if they hope to turn their season around. Picking up a victory over a lowly Texans team is the right start, but Las Vegas would do well to keep Houston’s best players in check.

In Week 7, the Raiders will look to get their season back on track, and they have a favorable matchup against the Texans. There is a lot of work to do to turn this season around, but they have the talent to do so, and it all starts this weekend inside Allegiant Stadium.

Ahead of Sunday afternoon’s contest, these are the Texans players that the Raiders must key in on to finish with a victory.
