The NFL preseason schedule was released Thursday, see who is on the agenda for your Houston Texans

On Thursday NFL teams announced their 2016 preseason schedule, and for the Houston Texans the opponents are incredibly similar to last preseason.

They will open their exhibition games off by traveling to San Francisco to play the 49ers. In Week 2 they will host the New Orleans Saints, followed by a second consecutive home game as they face the Arizona Cardinals.

Their final game will be at AT&T Stadium in Dallas as they play their in-state rivals, the Cowboys as they typically do.

In 2015, the Texans played against the 49ers, Cowboys and Saints as well. The only different opponent this year will be Arizona (they faced the Denver Broncos last preseason).

All games will be aired on ABC 13, but as of now only the game against the Cardinals has a kickoff time, which will be 3:00 p.m.
