They will return to the practice squad after the game without having to pass through waivers. Each player can be elevated two times in a season before needing to go through waivers.
Coulter, 23, was a three-year starter at Rhode Island before being selected by the Texans in the fifth round of the draft. He was in the second year of his four-year rookie deal worth $3,587,952 that included a signing bonus of $292,952 with Houston when they waived him.
In 2020, Isaiah Coulter appeared one game for the Texans but did not register a stat. He most recently worked out with the Bears prior to being signed by the team.
During his three-year career at Rhode Island, Coulter appeared in 34 games and recorded 132 receptions for 1,855 yards (14.1 YPC) and 12 touchdowns.
