History with Texans

The asterisk to his time with the Houston Texans says that he was an off-season or practice squad member. That's technically correct but it's more accurate to say that he was an off-season member only. He was with the Texans for part of training camp but was never on the Texans practice squad. 100.18.27.37 (talk) 12:52, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
