The Houston Texans officially promoted DT Auzoyah Alufohai to their active roster and placed OT Tytus Howard on injured reserve.
This officially ends Howard’s 2020 season with just two games remaining and Houston unlikely to make the playoffs.
Howard, 24, is a former first-round pick of the Texans out of Alabama State back in 2019. He’s in the second year of his four-year, $12,225,554 rookie contract that included a $6,911,312 signing bonus.
The Texans will have a fifth-year option to pick up on Howard in 2022.
In 2020, Howard has appeared in 14 games for the Texans, making 14 starts for them.
