Houston returned to the Big Ten for their second pick on Day 2 of the 2026 NFL Draft.
Michigan TE Marlin Klein was a team captain and physical tone-setter in 2025, and he arrives as the No. 59 pick.
John Harris loves Klein’s physicality and willingness to “trade paint” all game with an edge defender.
He also notes that Klein is very positionally flexible, able to line up as an in-line Y, H-back, and a receiver.
