More from the Chron:

Quote:
"We’ve had a really good 90-man roster, guys that have really worked hard to try to do the things that we’ve asked them to do. But again, at the end of the day, you have to get down to 53. Those are difficult decisions and difficult conversations, but conversations that have to happen."

The Texans currently have five tight ends on the active roster: veteran Darren Fells, Jordan Akins, Jerell Adams and Jordan Thomas. Rookie third-round draft pick Kahale Warring made the active roster and wasn't placed on injured reserve. He has been sidelined under the NFL concussion protocol.

Meanwhile, quarterback Joe Webb was placed on injured reserve with a foot injury.

The Texans also cut cornerback Breian Boddy-Calhoun, wide receiver Chad Hansen, waived-injured linebacker B.J. Bello, cutting linebacker Davin Bellamy, running back Karan Higdon, offensive tackle Rick Leonard, wide receiver Jester Weah and they waived-injured Xavier Woodson-Luster (ankle).
There are more mentioned in the above link -- long article with names scattered throughout. After all these trades, the final 53 is still a jumbled mess.....

Matt Kalil cut today. Saves $3.25M of cap space.

"Panel" is just having an amazing run at general manager.
