The Houston Texans remain in a strange spot regarding their depth chart at safety heading into the 2020 NFL season.

The Houston Texans have an almost entirely new group of safeties heading into this season with Justin Reid and A.J. Moore the only returning safeties from last season after the Texans released Tashaun Gipson. There were rumblings that Houston could part ways with Gipson, and it turned to be the case after he was waived a few days since the conclusion of the 2020 NFL draft.

Gipson’s future in Houston was on thin ice after the Texans added Eric Murray, Jaylen Watkins, and Michael Thomas in free agency.
