The Houston Texans made a series of roster transactions as they gear up for their first day of training camp.
The Texans released receiver Donte Moncrief, terminating his contract as a vested veteran.
Houston also placed tackle Geron Christian, running back Buddy Howell, and receiver Taywan Taylor on the COVID-19 reserve.
Across the league there were 15 players, including the Texans, who were placed on their team’s COVID-19 reserves. All but one of them were the result of a positive test.
Cornerback Cornell Armstrong, defensive end DeMarcus Walker, tight end Pharaoh Brown, and safety Lonnie Johnson were placed on the non-football injury list. However, they will count on the active list.
The Texans’ first practice is at 9:00 a.m. Central Time Wednesday at Houston Methodist Training Center.
