The Texans have placed rookie CB Jaylin Smith on IR to create a roster spot for FB/TE Jakob Johnson.
Smith will be forced to miss at least 4 week.
From @TexansProbe episode last week talking about C.J. Gardner-Johnson.
We soured on him quickly and so did the building seemingly.
Texans whole offseason overview:
C.J. Gardner Johnson - Released
Cam Robinson - Benched
Laken Tomlinson - Benched
Darrell Taylor - Healthy Inactive
Sheldon Rankins - 👍🏻
Ed Ingram - 👍🏻
Jayden Higgins & Jaylin Noel - Don’t play
Aireontae Ersery - 11 pressures in 3 games
Jaylin Smith - IR
E.J. Speed - Special Teamer
Foley Fatukasi - DT4/5
Nick Niemann - Released
Ronald Darby - Retired
Tremon Smith - 👍🏻
Jake Andrews - 👍🏻
What a absolute mess.
The Texans have released S C.J. Gardner-Johnson via @RapSheet.
CJGJ had communicated to the team that he was not happy with his role and wanted to blitz more according to @AaronWilson_NFL
The 2025 OL class so far with their PFF grades.
What the Texans are asking Ersery to do currently is really not fair to him but I still think he will be a good player.
The Texans would be dumb to not consider moving off some of their guys at the deadline if we get there and this team hasn’t figured it out (they won’t).
- Danielle Hunter
- C.J. Gardner-Johnson
- Christian Kirk?
- Tim Settle/Sheldon Rankins
- Cam Robinson
Basically any older player that doesn’t have a longterm future in Houston would be options for me.
C.J. Stroud yesterday on throws 0-10 yards:
22/25
114 Yards
Stroud on throws of 10+:
3/11
80 Yards
1 TD
2 INTs
Not a shortage of missed opportunities whether misses from Stroud or bad routes/miscommunications.
I still do not understand why Christian Kirk faded this route inside when he had all the room in the world to the outside.
Stroud throws the football away from the safety but since Kirk came in towards the hash it’s incomplete.
Huge missed opportunity here
The NFL has removed Jimmie Ward from the commissioner exempt list via @jonmalexander.
Ward is still on PUP/Injured Reserve but could come off after next week.
