USC's Lake McRee: Texans' New Blocking Weapon?

0:00For the NFL, it's March 4th. Here's what's happening. Make sure you're subscribed so you never miss an update. USC tied in Lake McRee turned heads at the NFL Scouting Combine, boosting his draft stock as a reliable blocker who wants to stay on the field every snap. The Houston Texans met with him recently, sparking talk of another USC Trojan joining their roster. Texans reporter Cody Stutz highlighted McGree's blocking willingness and technique in a tweet. He also noted McGree's USC ties, like arriving with safety Kalen Bullock, who earned the nickname Stix for his skinny frame back then. Houston already boasts success with former Trojans. Bullock has emerged as one of the league's top safeties in his first two seasons, thanks to his ball-hawking skills against quarterbacks. Running back Woody Mark stepped up last year as a fourth round pick, filling in effectively while Joe Mixon was out. The Texans feature elite tight-end Dalton Schultz and popular backup Brev and Jordan, but adding McRee as a third option makes sense.

McGree could develop into a weapon for quarterback CJ Stroud down the line, continuing Houston's perfect track record with USC picks. Keep an eye on this as draft season heats up.
