Houston Texans 53-man roster: Who made the cut?

The Houston Texans made it to 3:00 p.m. Central Time with their roster under 53 men, meeting the NFL’s deadline.

Here is a list at who the Texans decided to keep on their 53-man roster at the deadline. It is worth mentioning the Texans have to wait until 12:00 p.m. on Aug. 30 before they can construct their practice squad. The way the roster looks today may not be the final version when they enter Week 1 as there is still tinkering with injured players that must be finalized.
