Grade Logan Hall
Your grade joins the crowd-sourced Fan Verdict.
On the field, Logan Hall grades out as a middling DE for Houston Texans (C- Performance). That places him 83rd of 147 graded defensive ends. The contract is harder to defend: the Contract Value Index calls it a slight overpay (D+), with the cost outrunning the output. The public read is positive (B Sentiment), drawn from current news and social signal rather than the box score.

Above-replacement production at the DE salary tier earns Logan Hall a D+ Contract Value Index. At $6.875M AAV over two years, Hall is being paid as a depth-rotation pass rusher despite carrying legitimate starter potential—a mismatch that works decisively in Houston's favor. His 2025 season statistics (39 tackles, 1.5 sacks across 17 games) reflect limited impact production, which explains the C- performance grade and the below-market valuation: he was underutilized in his prior system and hasn't yet proven he can sustain starter-level snaps. However, the media consensus and fan sentiment (both trending strongly positive) hinge on one concrete variable: DeMeco Ryans' documented track record of converting underutilized pass rushers into productive starters. If Hall's athleticism finally translates into consistent pressure in Houston's defensive scheme, the Texans will have locked in a starter's production at depth pricing—an asymmetric bet that becomes a steal if the breakout materializes. The short two-year window also limits downside exposure; if the fit doesn't click, Houston exits cleanly without long-term salary commitment.
Other same-position deals the Contract Value Index also places in the D band — a quick read on where Logan's contract sits relative to comparable money.
Logan Hall is a five-year Houston Texans defensive end who has become a reliable rotational pass rusher with limited high-end production. The 26-year-old veteran has appeared in 66 career games and typically operates as a depth contributor rather than a consistent starter. His current season performance warrants scrutiny after dropping from a C in 2024 to a D grade in 2025, signaling meaningful decline in impact metrics. Hall's production this season sits below NFL benchmarks across key pass-rush categories. His sack rate of 0.09 per game trails the league average of 0.19 and sits well short of elite standards of 0.66, indicating minimal finish on his pressures. Tackles for loss average just 0.18 per game against an NFL average of 0.27, while his 0.35 QB hits per contest underscore a consistent issue: he generates occasional disruption but rarely translates pressure into splash plays. His earlier body of work suggests he's capable of steadier production than this season reflects. The trajectory is concerning heading into 2026. Hall has now posted two consecutive grades below average, raising questions about whether age, injury, or system fit has compromised his effectiveness. The Texans should evaluate whether he remains part of their defensive line rotation or if Houston's pass-rush investment would be better allocated elsewhere. Continued decline would likely signal the end of his tenure, though a bounce-back season remains possible if personnel changes or role adjustments occur.
Logan Hall ranks 83rd of 147 graded defensive ends by performance. That slots Logan between Chauncey Golston (C-) just ahead and Eyioma Uwazurike (C-) just behind.
