2022 NFL Draft: How Order Looks After Week 15 Wins By Lions, Texans

The 2022 NFL Draft saw a bit of a shake up during Week 15 of the 2021 season with both the Houston Texans and Detroit Lions earning their third and second wins of the campaign, respectively.

The Texans defeated the woeful Jacksonville Jaguars while the Lions earned a stunner over the NFC West-leading Arizona Cardinals. The Cardinals, of note, were the top seed in the conference just six days ago before consecutive losses.

It was one of a pair of shocking upsets as the New Orleans Saints shut out Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on “Sunday Night Football.”

4. New York Jets (3-11)
