The Houston Texans addressed the vacant spot that was left on the defensive line with J.J. Watt ruled out for the rest of the season to have surgery to address a torn pectoral muscle. According to Field Yates of ESPN, the Texans signed Joel Heath to the 53 man roster, and he is expected to be ready to play if needed against the Baltimore Raven in Week 11.
Heath signed with the Texans after going undrafted in 2016 from Michigan State and has formed part of Houston’s defensive line every year he has been in the league.
