The Houston Texans are exploring a trade to obtain a second top-10 pick in the 2022 NFL Draft, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

The Texans hold the No. 3 and No. 13 selections ahead of Thursday's first round. If the right player is available, the AFC South club is prepared to move its No. 13 pick to acquire the prospect, Schefter reports.

General manager Nick Caserio said that while the Texans will almost definitely use the third overall pick, there's a "maybe 50%-60% chance" they keep the 13th selection, he told NFL Media's Jim Trotter.

The Texans have made multiple offseason moves, including trading quarterback Deshaun Watson to the Cleveland Browns. While the team could opt to draft another quarterback, the club has stood behind Davis Mills throughout the offseason.

Houston is projected to select cornerback Derek Stingley and wide receiver Garrett Wilson in theScore's final mock draft.
