NOV 1 GRUGIER-HILL SIGNS WITH CARDINALS 

After requesting his release from the team last week, former Houston Texans linebacker Kamu Grugier-Hill has signed a deal with the Arizona Cardinals, Texans Daily has learned. 

Grugier-Hill was the Texans leading tackler in 2021, and before requesting his release from the team, had started all six games this season. 

Grugier-Hill had played a total of 20 games for the Texans over the last two seasons, 148 total tackles, 14 tackles for loss, three sacks, two forced fumbles, one interception, and five quarterback hits.

OCT 31 BRANDIN COOKS TIES 

This belongs in the "rumor'' category, and it is worth noting that in our two recent conversations with NFL sources, the Texans organization continues to downplay the idea of trading receiver Brandin Cooks.

But teams are calling. And now the Dallas Cowboys - so goes the buzz - are being connected.

There are prohibitive reasons for him moving, as 1) we believe Houston would ask for a second-round pick in exchange and 2) he's got an $18 million price tag locked in for 2023.

But would he help Dallas or another contending team? No doubt, the "take-the-top-off'' vet succeeding in Houston (in seven starts this year the 29-year-old has 32 catches for 354 yards and one touchdown) despite shaky QB play.

He's a perennial 1,000-yard guy and his name has now popped up in two media spots, in Dallas and in New York. Are the Cowboys really that interested in spending what it takes here?

OCT 26 THOMAS DESIGNATED FOR RETURN

Texans nickel back and special teams ace Tavierre Thomas is expected to return to practice with the team launching his 21-day window to be activated from injured reserve-designated for return, according to a league source.

Usually, the Texans have players practice for a week or so before placing them on the active roster. 

Thomas was placed on short-term injured reserve with a pulled quadriceps suffered during training camp.

Thomas has made a sound recovery and has been running for weeks.

The injury represented a setback to the Texans' defense and special-teams units. Thomas is also a sound tackler. Tackling has been a recurring issue for the Texans' defense.

Thomas had a career-high 86 tackles and two interceptions last season in 16 games with one forced fumble. He played 56 percent of the defensive snaps and 67 percent of the special teams snaps.

Signed to a two-year, $4 million contract last year that includes $2 million guaranteed with a $1 million signing bonus, Thomas started a career-high three games last season.

The former undrafted free agent from Ferris State had a breakthrough season last year for the Texans and consistently drew praise from coach Lovie Smith.

OCT 22 MOVE 

Christian Harris' final college football game at Alabama displayed his athleticism and instincts.

He recorded three sacks, four tackles for losses and a forced fumble in a loss to Georgia in the national championship game.

Now, the Texans rookie outside linebacker is set to play in his first NFL game Sunday against the Las Vegas Raiders.

Harris was officially activated Saturday after being designated for return from injured reserve after straining his hamstring in training camp.

Signed to a four-year, $5.34 million contract that includes a $1.069 million signing bonus, the third-round draft pick turned heads at training camp with his ability to run and diagnose plays. Harris has speed to burn with a 4.44 time the 40-yard dash and is regarded as a versatile sideline-to-sideline defender.

“I was really excited then and really excited now," Texans coach Lovie Smith said of Harris' growth since the team drafted him. "We like the skill set, the talent of a young player. You have to keep that in mind. It’s his first game in a long period of time. I think he has grown as much as you can grow without practicing. He’s smart. He’s put in the time. Now you have to have that first game. We have to get him out there and let him start playing. Eventually, that’s what he’ll be able to do.”

Harris worked with the first-team defense during organized team activities before getting hurt the first week of August. He appeared in no preseason games and missed the first four games of the regular season.

If Harris plays beyond special teams snaps Sunday, he's expected to work in as the third linebacker along with second-year linebacker Garret Wallow in addition to special teams.

“Position versatility, I don’t buy that an awful lot with most people," Smith said. "Position flexibility with a young player is almost impossible to do that. We’re trying to get him up to date on one position. That’s the chore in itself to do that, an awful lot that goes into.

"Most people I hear say, ‘Put him out there and let him run around and make plays.’ It’s a little bit more to it. We’re trying to get him up speed on one position is what we’re trying to do right now.”

OCT 21 WALLER OUT, RENFRO QUESTIONABLE VS TEXANS

The Houston Texans might have caught a big break for their Sunday matchup vs. the Las Vegas Raiders. 

Per TexansDaily.com's  Aaron Wilson, the Raiders have officially ruled out tight end Darren Waller. Wideout Hunter Renfro is also listed as questionable. 

Waller, one of the league's most talented tight ends, has been out multiple weeks with a hamstring injury. 

OCT 12 TEXANS SIGN JORDAN AKINS TO 53

OCT 5 CONLEY CUT The Houston Texans have let go of an eight-year veteran at wide receiver with the release of Chris Conley from the practice squad.

It has been a yo-yo experience since Conley signed with the Texans last season, as he made 10 starts for the team in 2021. ... while this season, he played in just two games, in which he got two targets and no catches.

In 18 games in Houston, Conley recorded 22 catches for 323 yards and two TDs.

OCT 4 BROWN OUT The Texans are cutting tight end Pharaoh Brown, as first reported by Aaron Wilson.

AUGUST 10 EMMONS HEADS TO HOUSTON

The Texans are signing running back B.J. Emmons, according to multiple reports. The news was first reported by Pro Football Network's Aaron Wilson. Houston has a need for running back after placing Darius Anderson on injured reserve with a dislocated knee that required season-ending surgery.

"[He's] a guy that showed up every day, was doing some good things," Texans coach Lovie Smith said Wednesday of Anderson. "We had a plan for him. Unfortunately, injuries are part of our game. It's just pretty much a non-contact injury that happened."

AUGUST 9 SHAHEEN LEAVES SOUTH BEACH FOR AFC SOUTH

The Texans are trading a 2023 sixth-round pick in exchange for Miami Dolphins tight end Adam Shaheen and a 2023 seventh-round pick. Shaheen signed a two-year, $7.65 million contract extension with the Dolphins in 2020.

Drafted by the Chicago Bears out of Ashland University in 2017, Shaheen has been known for his blocking skills. The 6-7 tight end has often been a mismatch nightmare against defensive ends in terms of run blocking.

Shaheen was traded to Miami in 2020 for a conditional seventh-round pick. From there, he'd go on to record 12 catches for 150 yards and three touchdowns under coach Brian Flores' direction. In 2021, Shaheen finished with 12 catches for 110 yards.

Snead, 29, recently played with the Las Vegas Raiders and Carolina Panthers. He tallied three catches for 33 yards before being waived by Las Vegas in October.

Best known for his time with the New Orleans Saints and Ravens, Snead has been a reliable slot weapon in the passing attack. In three seasons with the Saints, he recorded 149 catches for 1,971 yards and seven touchdowns. In three years with Baltimore, Snead tallied 126 catches for 1,422 yards and nine touchdowns.

The Texans worked out former Tennessee Titans receiver Chester Rogers on Monday evening, but no deal was finalized.

AUGUST 1 ROGERS READY TO RUMBLE WITH TEXANS?

According to reports, former Tennessee Titans and Indianapolis Colts receiver Chester Rogers is set to visit the Texans Monday evening. Should the workout go well, it is expected Houston will sign him to the active roster.
