The Houston Texans have finalized their roster, trimming it down from 90 to 53 players in preparation for their Week 1 matchup against the Buffalo Bills. While this decision has clarified some aspects of the team, several questions remain regarding the roster's construction as the season begins.
One significant question is whether the Texans will sign another quarterback to their practice squad. Currently, the team has only two quarterbacks, C.J. Stroud and Davis Mills, on the active roster.
Veteran Brett Rypien, who served as the third quarterback during the preseason, was cut during the roster reductions. Although the Texans seem satisfied with their current quarterback situation, there are several veterans available on the market, such as Bailey Zappe and Nick Mullins, who could be considered in the coming weeks.
Another area of uncertainty is which tight end will be inactive on gameday. The Texans have five tight ends on their roster, including Brevin Jordan, who was brought back after the cuts. Each tight end offers a unique skill set, making it a challenge to determine who will be active for the game against the Bills.
Jordan, who has been dealing with a leg injury, is a likely candidate to be inactive, although he may still contribute later in the season.
