Texans OT waived year after cancer remission

HOUSTON -- A year after entering remission from cancer and three years after the Texans drafted him, David Quessenberry was hoping to be on his way to finally playing an NFL down.

That won't happen -- at least not with the Texans this season. But the organization does want him back.

The Texans waived the offensive tackle Tuesday with a non-football injury designation. He won't play for the Texans this year, but if he clears waivers it's possible he returns to the roster on the Texans' non-football injury/illness list. It's also possible he returns to the Texans in some other capacity.
