The Houston Texans made a couple of roster moves as they gear up for their Week 15 encounter with the Indianapolis Colts Sunday at 12:00 p.m. CT at Lucas Oil Stadium.
Their first was to claim cornerback Mark Fields off waivers from the Minnesota Vikings. Houston then placed him on the exempt/commissioner permission list.
Fields went undrafted in 2019 from Clemson and caught on with the Kansas City Chiefs. Kansas City then traded Fields to the Vikings at the end of preseason for a 2021 seventh-round pick. Fields collected a tackle in three career games with the Vikings.
Houston also placed guard Hjalte Froholdt on COVID-19 reserve. The former Arkansas Razorback has not practiced for the past two days.
