Quessenberry's comeback goal to make it in the NFL after battling cancer will be put on hold.
David Quessenberry, the former 2013 6th round pick out of San Jose State University, has been waived by the Houston Texans on Tuesday with a non-football injury.
Quessenberry has not played a down of football in the NFL since being drafted in 2013. His football career went on hold in 2014 when Quessenberry was diagnosed with non-Hodgkins lymphoma in June of that year.
Head football coach Bill O'Brien had this to say about Quessenberry:
"It is our hope that he'll revert to reserve NFI so he can continue to be a part of this organization, continue his recovery and fulfill his goal of playing again," Texans coach Bill O'Brien said.
