An undrafted rookie out of Baylor, Houston signed with the Cleveland Browns following the draft and was waived in August. He quickly landed with the Carolina Panthers – and his former college coach Matt Rhule, before being waived.
Houston started all 14 games at cornerback for Baylor in 2019, finishing the year with 44 tackles, eight pass breakups, and one interception.
