Confirmed Texans Roster Moves: 8 Waived, 4 IR'd, 2 Signed

early on people believed he never got the chance to shine because he was buried on the depth chart in arizona behind 2 of the best young wrs in the nfl. since leaving the cards, he’s started 35 games at WR while amassing 1200 total yards and 6 tds.

at 30, he’s a season or two away from selling used cars for a living.

He is so inconsistent. Matt shakes his head in disgust!

A four deep rotation at WR sounds pretty good to me. Since nobody else has stepped up and done anything this preseason.

Who ever wins the last spot will just be keeping Jean’s spot warm for him next season.

Cheap camp body that could push the young kids the last week. That’s all.

That we are not privy to

It would not have been a big deal to let him play on Thursday.

Crossing my fingers on the health of our other backs. So, there’s a game Thursday? I hope Slate gets as many carries as possible. Hopefully, he can land a gig elsewhere. Indy, Jax, or Nashville would be ideal.

Wasn’t that bad of an injury, but we wanted to stash him for next year.

I will burn this fucker down.

It reminds me of the joke about the guy that noticed the gorilla on the golf course that was nailing everything 400 yards… So he picks him up for his partner in the club tourney and on the first tee the gorilla nails his drive 400 yards and rolls it up to within 6 inches of the cup. They go to the green, the gorilla lines the putt up… checks the slope… carefully positions himself over the ball and… nails it 400 yards.

Touch matters to a punter as well.

but he looks impressive to me

There’s no way you can predict his professional path through injuries. In hindsight, wow! Going forward, this is the right move to shed him and move on.

But his career here has been a slow “death by a million tiny cuts” journey.

but how much of this is due to Kubiak’s Midas touch on anything related to offense, and RIchSmith/Frank Bush/Kubiaks inability to know the first thing about the defensive side of the ball.

If this regime is here for the next three years, I see no reason not to keep drafting 6/8 on the defensive side of the ball and let Kubes make the offensive Juggernaut out of the scraps.

is bad

We always have to wonder whether the lack of protection and bad coaching ruined him or he really is that bad.

I do agree on TJ… He sucked a fat one.
Then, you go on to make a specific point about how poor coaching and development has been and follow that by throwing Kareem under the bus. Now, I’m not about to shoulder the burden that would be undertaken by defending KJax because that story just hasn’t been written yet. But that’s the point… It hasn’t been yet. It’s pretty widely accepted that every level of our defensive scheme and technique was pretty atrocious, can we agree? If so, why not wait a year under a good DC to hammer down on KJax?

Jean would definitely been in one of the two open spots at WR if he had not gotten hurt.

The other guys have shown nothing impressive in camp or in games to warrant the coaches just letting them have those last two spots. Jeff probably won’t even touch the field outside of ST if he makes it but I’ve never felt he was going to make the team anyways. Kubiak likes bigger physical WR’s over the smaller ones. Also with Casey, Owen, and Joel not to mention Foster we don’t need that possession type WR. Casey and Joel can fill that role much better than Jeff could this year.

I think Dorin will keep his spot mainly because he was here last year and is still a physical specimen. Unless Toliver plays and just wows the coaches but that is unlikely to me.

They did cut James Sanders so I can see them doing that.
