Houston Texans Roster News: Scottie Miller Placed on IR, Royce Freeman Claimed

One of the things we wanted was some youth at the running back position. The Houston Texans have an old running back room, that can’t break tackles, can’t pass protect, and tries to bounce everything outside where they are devoured up. Not only that, it’s an expensive running back group. The three things we know about this position, is that it’s a position built around youth, can be found in later rounds of the draft, and you don’t need to pay a high amount to acquire talented running backs. The Texans ignored all if these truisms. Instead they retained David Johnson, signed Phillip Lindsay, Mark Ingram, and Rex Burkhead, who haven’t been able to make up for their offensive line, that is once again terrible.
