Texans cut 3 veterans, including DE Mario Addison

The Houston Texans are trimming the fat on their roster in order to free up some cap space.

According to the team, the Texans are cutting defensive end Mario Addison, offensive lineman A.J. Cann and linebacker Jalen Reeves-Maybin. In addition, the Texans have re-signed defensive end Derek Rivers to a one-year deal.

Addison, Cann and Reeves-Maybin all joined the team a year ago and are now one-and-done in Houston.

Addison, who turns 36 this offseason, played in 12 games for the Texans this past season and recorded 15 tackles.

Cann, 31, came to Houston after seven years with the rival Jacksonville Jaguars.
