Texans claim Tyler Johnson

_iay2SaNYdLH
As rumors about Tom Brady almost departing the Bucs for other teams continue to swirl, the veteran QB insists he was never going to leave Tampa.

Wide receiver Tyler Johnson lost his spot on the Buccaneers roster Tuesday, but he has landed with another NFL team.

The NFL released a list of waiver claims on Wednesday afternoon and it includes word that the Texans have added Johnson to their roster. They have not announced a corresponding move to make room for him at this point.

Johnson appeared in 31 regular season games and six postseason contests for the Bucs after being drafted in the fifth round in 2020. He had 48 catches for 529 yards and two touchdowns in the regular season and seven catches for 76 yards in the postseason.

Wide receivers Nico Collins, Brandin Cooks, Phillip Dorsett, and Chris Moore made the initial roster in Houston.
