HOUSTON (FOX 26) - In need of adding a fullback to the roster, the Houston Texans traded cornerback Sherrick McManis to the Chicago Bears for Tyler Clutts.
In 2011, Clutts only season in the NFL, he played in 16 games for the Bears, starting eight.
He didn't have any carries last year, but caught eight passes for 48 yards.

Prior to that Clutts was in the CFL (2008-09), UFL (2011) and the AFL (2011).
McMannis was the Texans' fifth round pick in 2010.
He played in 23 games for Houston, nine last season with no starts.
McManis had his only career interception two years ago.
