Summary
- Houston Texans are waiving two players, Ajani Carter and Xavier Thomas.
- Both players are being waived from injured reserve on Wednesday.
- Training camp for the Texans is scheduled to begin on July 21.
The Houston Texans have opened up two new roster spots for the upcoming 2026 offseason. This comes as the team plans to waive cornerback Ajani Carter and outside linebacker Xavier Thomas from injured reserve on Wednesday.
Ajani Carter, a product of the University of Houston, joined the Texans last season and saw limited action on the practice squad. He played in two regular-season games, recording one tackle. Carter is healthy enough to return this season after undergoing knee surgery and rehabilitation this offseason.
Xavier Thomas, a former standout outside linebacker from Clemson, was initially a fifth-round draft pick by the Cardinals. During his time with Arizona, he participated in 14 games, accumulating 10 tackles, 2 sacks, a forced fumble, and a pass breakup. The Texans will begin their training camp on July 21.
