ANALYSIS
Ott played three years at California before transferring to Oklahoma for his senior season. The running back suffered a shoulder issue entering the 2025 season that led to him seeing meaningful snaps in only two games. The Chiefs are likely taking a flyer on Ott due to his 2023 season at California, where he rushed 245 times for 1,305 yards and 12 touchdowns and added 26 receptions for 321 yards and three touchdowns. Ott's standout sophomore campaign suggests he has a shot to be a meaningful producer at the NFL level if he can avoid the injury bug.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Fifth-rounder per Reuter
Chad Reuter of NFL.com's five-round mock draft has Ott going 167 overall to Houston.
ANALYSIS
Ott had just 68 rushing yards in seven games at Oklahoma in 2025 but was productive at California in 2022 and 2023 prior to the onset of injury issues. He bolstered his draft stock at the Senior Bowl by standing out as a pass blocker, thrusting Ott back into the conversation as an option on Day 3 of the 2026 NFL Draft. Houston seems like a decent fit for Ott considering new Texans lead back David Montgomery is known as an early-down bruiser who doesn't contribute much in passing situations.
