Houston Texans: David Quessenberry waived, team wants him back in some capacity

Sadly for Houston Texans offensive lineman David Quessenberry, his quest to play in the NFL after battling cancer may have hit a road block. The Texans waived the 2013 sixth-round pick from San Jose State with a non-football injury designation.

Quessenberry has never played a down in the NFL after his rookie season was ended due to a foot injury and before being able to return from that set back he was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin T-lymphoblastic lymphoma.

After being told by head coach Bill O’Brien that 2015 wouldn’t be the season for the lineman to return, he was placed on the non-football illness/injury list, ending his season.
