Texans activate LT Laremy Tunsil from COVID-19 reserve

The Houston Texans have brought back Pro Bowl left tackle Laremy Tunsil from the COVID-19 reserve.

The Houston Texans have finally gotten Laremy Tunsil back from the COVID-19 reserve.

The Texans announced Monday they had activated the two-time Pro Bowler from the COVID-19 reserve after having been placed there on Aug. 13.

Houston was being deliberate with the 27-year-old, allowing him to get his conditioning down before activating him from the reserve and having him count against the active roster.

Tunsil missed all of the 2021 preseason. Although Tunsil has played 28 career games with Houston, starting in all of them since 2019, he has never played in a preseason game for the club.

The Texans host the Jacksonville Jaguars Sunday, Sept. 12 at NRG Stadium.
