Wide receiver and punt returner Amari Rodgers, who was released by the Green Bay Packers on Tuesday, has been claimed off the waiver wire by the Houston Texans, a source told ESPN on Wednesday.
Rodgers was released after the former 2021 third-round draft pick fumbled against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday. It was his fifth fumble of the season -- the most by any non-quarterback in the NFL, according to ESPN Stats & Information research -- with four of those coming on punt returns.
He has averaged 8.3 yards per punt return this season.
