The Houston Texans announced Wednesday that they’ve designated OLB Brennan Scarlett to return from injured reserve and signed G Beau Benzschawel to their practice squad.
Hereโs the Texans updated practice squad:
- DT Auzoyah Alufohai
- LB Davin Bellamy (Injured)
- DB Anthony Chesley
- WR Chad Hansen
- C Greg Mancz
- WR Steven Mitchell
- T Elijah Nkansah
- LB Emmanuel Ellerbee
- K Brett Maher
- WR Damion Ratley
- DB Jonathan Owens
- LB Curtis Bolton
- WR Artavis Scott
- C Cohl Cabral
- WR J’Mon Moore
- DB Manny Patterson
- G Beau Benzschawel
This opens a three-week window of time for the Texans to activate him from injured reserve and add him to their 53-man roster.
Scarlett, 27, wound up signing a three-year, $1.62 million contract with the Texans as an undrafted free agent out of Stanford back in 2016. He managed to make the 53-man roster coming out of the preseason but was placed on injured reserve with a hamstring injury before being activated later on.
Scarlett returned to the Texans on a one-year extension worth $3.75 million last year.
In 2020, Scarlett has appeared in eight games for the Texans and recorded 24 tackles.
