Derek Stingley Jr walked into the NFL with a résumé most rookies would kill for: national champion at LSU, a first-round pick, and by his third season one of the most disruptive cornerbacks in the AFC. As Houston's secondary became a legitimate strength behind C.J. Stroud's rise, the Derek Stingley Jr jersey turned into one of the more requested defensive-back pieces in the Texans lineup — proof that shutdown corners can build a fanbase too, not just the quarterbacks and receivers.
Our Texans collection carries several #24 variations, each tied to a specific season or achievement. Here's how they break down.

From LSU Champion to Texans Shutdown Corner
Stingley's college tape at LSU — including a national title season where he barely allowed a completion in his direction — is part of why Houston took him with the third overall pick in 2022. Injuries slowed his first two seasons, but once healthy he became exactly the lockdown corner scouts projected, anchoring a Texans secondary that helped carry the team to back-to-back AFC South titles. Wearing the derek stingley jr texans jersey is a nod to that patience paying off.

The navy AFC South Champions edition is the safest everyday pick and matches most of Houston's other gear. The black-golden colorway leans more collector-piece — it stands out and works well displayed on a wall mount if you're not planning to wear it every Sunday. The 2024 2nd Alternate is the newest cut in the lineup and the one to grab if you want to be first among your group with the current-season look.
Sizing and Care
Stitched replica construction means the numbers and patches are sewn on, so the jersey holds up through a full season of tailgates without the lettering cracking or peeling like a printed jersey would. Fit runs true to athletic sizing — size up if you plan to wear a long-sleeve underneath for late-season home games.
Rounding Out Your Texans Secondary Collection
If Stingley is your entry point into Houston's defense, the Will Anderson Jr jersey pairs naturally as the pass-rush complement, and offense-side fans usually stack this with a CJ Stroud jersey to represent both sides of the ball. For the skill-position side of the roster, the Tank Dell jersey is another popular pick from the same era of Texans football.
