It’s always exciting when special guests get to announce picks during the NFL draft, and the Houston Texans revealed who will have the honor of announcing one of their picks.
The Texans announced on Wednesday that sports streamer Sketch will be taking the stage to make the announcement for one of their picks this weekend:
Sketch has nearly 794,000 followers on Twitch as of this writing. He’s frequently seen wearing a Texans jersey during his streams.
The Texans do not own their first-round pick in Thursday’s draft after an offseason trade with the Minnesota Vikings that brought star edge rusher Danielle Hunter to Houston. The team still owns nine draft picks, including two each in the second, fourth, sixth and seventh rounds.
After an outstanding offseason that included the acquisitions of four-time Pro Bowl receiver Stefon Diggs and star running back Joe Mixon, the Texans are in a great spot to fill any other remaining roster holes with their draft picks.
