Texans bring back former pass rusher to practice squad

Rashad Weaver is headed back to Houston.

The Texans are signing the former defensive end to the practice squad two days following his release from the active roster. In a corresponding move, Houston outright released cornerback Troy Pride Jr.

A former fourth-round pick out of Pitt by the Tennessee Titans, Weaver played in three games for Houston before being released earlier this week. With the Titan, he totaled 49 total tackles and 5.5 sacks in three seasons.

The Texans return to NRG Stadium this Sunday to take on the Indianapolis Colts at noon CT. Houston opens as a 6.5-point favorite.
