Thought I'd put the cuts in here.....
The grapevine says: OT Arturo Uzadivnis OLB Carlos Thompson WR Josh Lenz DT Ra'Zahn Howard OL Matt Pierson ILB Ryan Langford --------------------------------------------- John McClain @McClain_on_NFL Texans also cut WR Tevin Jones. S Curtis Drummond, K Ka'imi Fairbairn, C Nick Martin go to IR. S Lonnie Ballentine to PUP. |
Officially (from the Texans website):
08/30/2016 The Houston Texans have waived the following seven players from the active roster: DT Ra'Zahn Howard, WR Tevin Jones, ILB Ryan Langford, WR Josh Lenz, T Matt Pierson, OLB Carlos Thompson, T Arturo Uzdavinis 08/30/2016 The Houston Texans have placed the following players on Reserve/Injured: S Kurtis Drummond, K Ka'imi Fairbairn, C Nick Martin 08/30/2016 The Houston Texans have placed the following player on Reserve/Physically Unable to Perform: S Lonnie Ballentine 08/30/2016 The Houston Texans have waived the following player from the active roster with an injury settlement: DE Jeoffrey Pagan 08/30/2016 The Houston Texans have waived/injured the following two players: OLB Gerald Rivers, CB Duke Thomas |
The WR Lentz looked pretty good, I guess some team will claim him or he will get on practice squad.
Seems to me Texans depth is improving, at least at WR and CB. 22 more cuts coming by Saturday. |
Looks like cuts to 53 have begun. Tough choices,
http://www.scout.com/nfl/texans/stor...-53-man-roster This lists 17, need to get to 22 http://www.battleredblog.com/2016/9/...ake-the-53-man Now at 19 http://www.battleredblog.com/2016/9/...ake-the-53-man This is reasonable review of 53 man roster plus three. Are trades being considered? http://www.battleredblog.com/2016/9/...s-the-final-53 |
Quote:
WR, Quenton Bundrage WR, Wendall Williams RB, Kenny Hilliard TE, Anthony Denham TE, Eric Tomlinson OT, Jeff Adams C, Dalton Freeman OT, Andrew McDonald OG, Karim Barton OG, Chad Slade DE, Ufomba Kamalu ILB, Shakeel Rashad OLB, Eric Lee OLB, Tony Washington CB, Robert Nelson CB, Terrance Mitchell ------------------------------------------ Several of these guys will probably be offered PS contracts.... 610 Radio speculating Akeem Hunt and OLB Brennan Scarlett might be in.... |
Less likely to be trades than players added to IR lists.
|
pssst: Here's an easy cut - Cecil Shorts. We've got five better receivers than Sir Drop-a-holic. Save us $1.6 million in cap space. Do it, Bill.

Sounds like shorts and Hunt are being released.
Maybe one more by 3 pm. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com...-cecil-shorts/ |

I'm very disappointed that they're keeping Blue over Hunt. Blue had better be a special teams terror.
|
My guess is that they considered Hunt and Ervin to be too similar skill set-wise to keep both, and they decided Ervin has the higher upside. Blue is the classic "need three yards and he'll get you three, need five yards and he'll get you three" back.

I hadn't counted, but seems Texans kept a lot of youth and speed over experience.

Predicting Texans Record for 2016 Season
OK , I'm probably overconfident right now .
I saw we play 15 no. 1 picks at QB this year. And AFC South supposed to be improved this year. I think team better than last year so 10-6 could be achievable. Saw this prediction Texans would be 8-8. http://m.bleacherreport.com/articles...-before-week-1 |
Official practice squad (so far):
Quenton Bundrage Akeem Hunt Ufomba Kamalu Eric Lee Robert Nelson Shakeel Rashad Chad Slade Eric Tomlinson |
Two more additions to the practice squad:
