The Texans’ cutdown to 75 players is underway, with Mark Berman of FOX 26 Houston reporting, in a series of Twitter links, that the team has removed 10 players from its roster, cutting nine and moving linebacker Reshard Cliett to the injured reserve list. Cliett, a sixth-round pick, went down several weeks ago with a knee injury, and will be sidelined for his rookie season.
Per Berman, here are the nine players cut by the Texans today:
- Aaron Adams, T
- Jason Ankrah, OLB
- Alan Bonner, WR
- Jace Davis, WR
- Chris Neild, NT
- Cam McLeod, DE
- Travis Labhart, WR
- Bryan Witzmann, T
- Cody White, NT
By my count, the Texans are now carrying 80 active players, following their acquisition of tackle Chris Clark, so they’ll have to make a few more moves by Tuesday afternoon’s 75-man deadline.
