Also I don't see Tunsil being cut in the offseason and he probably will be tagged in 2024(if things remain the same). Someone will probably trade for him or the Texans would redo his deal.

Being from Houston and listening to the local ESPN guys talk about the Texans daily, I'll say that nothing is as simple as you imply.

Tunsil came in a trade with Houston giving up two 1st round picks and Tunsil getting one of the worst contracts in NFL history (from the team perspective).  His deal has already been re-done and extended once, and would not be easily extended or modified.  On top of that with what Houston gave up, they aren't likely to give him up for a song, which is why, essentially he is still here to being with.  His contract makes him impossible to move.

Additionally, he has an attitude problem.  He up and quit on the team last year, and only came back to camp when he got his extension.  All he cares about is the money.  You'll get no discounts from him, that's for sure.  He's one of the best in the league and he'll expect to be paid like it.

Summary:  Getting Tunsil would require giving up at least a 1st rnd pick and paying Tunsil a top 1-2 Left OT salary.
