Kenyon Green won’t suit up for the Houston Texans in 2023, but he nevertheless earned the respect of his new coach.
DeMeco Ryans met with reporters Aug. 30 and shared his remarks about Green’s offseason fraught with injury and rehabilitation that ended just before the cut down to a 53-man roster.
“Kenyon did a really great job of just rehabbing his knee, trying to work it back, his shoulder,” Ryans said. “He had things going on and I think the credit goes to Kenyon because he put the work in this offseason to be available for training camp. He went out everyday and gave it his all, everyday at training camp and pushed through a lot of things.”
Ryans stated he was “really proud of Kenyon” and the way he “fought through and did through a difficult training camp for him.”
Said Ryans: “Physically having a lot going on and to go through a hard training camp, credit to him. He’s a young player, he’ll bounce back. I’m just hoping for Kenyon to take care of himself, get himself ready to go for next year.”
General manager Nick Caserio said the message for the former 2022 first-round pick is to get ready for next year.
Green started 14 games for Houston last season among his 15 activations.
