Houston Texans Uncut John Reid, Trade Cornerback to Seattle Seahawks

Initial reports had your Houston Texans cutting former Penn State cornerback John Reid, as we announced yesterday.

However, it seems in a move somewhat reminiscent of Rick Smith, new Texans general manager Nick Caserio was able to get something in return for the 2nd year defensive back.

The #Texans are trading CB John Reid to the #Seahawks for a conditional seventh-round pick in 2023, per source.

Even though a conditional 7th round pick isn’t exactly a major asset, it’s a far sight better than getting nothing for one of the remaining Bill O’Brien holdovers.
