Texans Signing Former Buccaneers Tight End OJ Howard, per Report

Free agent tight end OJ Howard has found a new home in the NFL.

The Texans are reportedly signing the former Buccaneers and Bills tight end, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

Houston will be Howard’s third NFL team. His reported signing comes after Buffalo released him on Tuesday, followed by a meeting with the Bengals that did not turn into a deal. Following the meeting and Cincinnati’s addition of tight end Devin Asiasi to its roster, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported that Houston was in the running to sign Howard, stating that he was taking a physical at the team’s headquarters.
