HOUSTON -- Texans defensive end Dylan Horton was activated from the reserve/non-football injured list Saturday, less than a year after he was diagnosed with late-stage Hodgkin lymphoma.
Horton, who returned to practice Wednesday, was diagnosed with the cancer of the lymph nodes Dec. 1. The 24-year-old announced that he was in remission in March.
Coach DeMeco Ryans said it was "awesome" to have him back at practice this week and raved about his attitude.
"The way he handled it and the mindset with which he handled it, he always still attacked it with a smile, he attacked it with a great attitude every single day," Ryans said Wednesday.
