The Houston Texans announced that they have signed outside linebacker Gimel President after releasing former 2017 third-round draft pick running back, D’Onta Foreman. The former Texas longhorn running back was released after a poor showing through the Texans first couple of weeks in training camp. Foreman had a steep hill to climb after coming back from a serious Achilles injury his rookie season.
President is making his return to Houston after signing with the Texans as an undrafted free agent in 2017. Playing his collegiate football from the University of Illinois, he competed with other players through Texans’ training camp and preseason and made enough of an impression to earn a roster spot on their ten-player practice squad.
