Derek Stingley Jr. has etched his name in Houston Texans' history by being named a first-team All-Pro, marking the franchise's first such honor since DeAndre Hopkins in 2019. This prestigious recognition, awarded by the Associated Press, highlights the top players in the NFL as chosen by a panel of 50 media members.

Stingley's selection comes as no surprise given his outstanding performance throughout the season, including impressive statistics such as 18 pass deflections and five interceptions. The defining moment for Stingley was his matchup against Tyreek Hill of the Miami Dolphins, where he successfully limited Hill's impact while also securing two interceptions in a pivotal game.
