Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports that the Texans are signing QB Matt McGloin to a contract following the news that QB Deshaun Watson is out for the year with a torn ACL.
McGloin, 27, wound up signing on with the Raiders as an undrafted free agent out of Penn State back in 2013. He surprisingly has managed to make the 53-man roster each year since entering the league and returned to the Raiders last year on a one-year, $2.553 million restricted deal.
As an unrestricted free agent, McGloin signed a one-year contract with the Eagles but was unfortunately among their final roster last weekend.
