By 12:00 p.m. CDT today, NFL teams have already trimmed their rosters to 53 players, have sifted through the waiver wire, and can now sign players to their practice squad. Last season, the Texans saw LaTroy Lewis, David Quessenberry, Bryce Jones, Chad Slade, Chris Thompson, and Gimel President move from the practice squad to the 53-man roster at some point. This year, some of the loose teeth hanging in the mouth of Houston’s roster will make the jump as well.
