WATCH: Texans S Jalen Pitre works on JUGS machine ahead of interview

Jalen Pitre continues his progression as a leader by example.

The former 2022 second-round safety demonstrated his prowess as a leader with 147 combined tackles and five interceptions for the Texans.

The former Baylor product doesn’t merely want to coast off of a stellar rookie season into his second year in the NFL. According to video from the Texans Wire’s Brian Barefield, Pitre was observed getting reps in on the JUGS machine ahead of his interview with the ensemble media at training camp at Houston Methodist Training Center Wednesday.

The work underscores the commitment the Stafford High School alumnus is bringing to new coach DeMeco Ryans’ defense.
