The Houston Texans are looking to strengthen their pass rush as they evaluate defensive end Devean Deal. The undrafted free agent from TCU, who previously spent time with the Seattle Seahawks, was worked out by the team, according to a report from KPRC 2's Aaron Wilson.
Deal had a notable college career, recording 176 tackles and 13 sacks during his time at TCU and Tulane. The Texans are currently dealing with injury challenges, including the absence of Jadeveon Clowney and Logan Hall, though the specifics of their injuries have not been disclosed. This situation raises concerns about the team's depth and potential roster changes.
In addition to signing linebacker Caleb Johnson, the Texans have recently added veteran receivers Sterling Shepard and Zay Jones, while linebacker K.C. Ossai has been placed on injured reserve. As the Texans prepare for their season opener against the Buffalo Bills, they aim to resolve their injury issues and enhance their defensive lineup.
The status of Deal remains uncertain as he has not yet been signed by the team.
