The Houston Texans have promoted TE Pharaoh Brown to their active roster on Tuesday and placed TE Kahale Warring on injured reserve, according to Aaron Wilson.
The Texans confirmed the news and announced that they’ve also signed G Cordel Iwuagwu to their practice squad.
Hereโs the Texans updated practice squad:

Brown, 26, wound up signing on with the Raiders as an undrafted free agent out of Oregon back in 2017. He was waived coming out of the preseason but was later signed to the Raiders’ practice squad.
The Raiders eventually promoted Brown to their active roster before once again releasing him at the start of the regular season. The Browns later signed him to their practice squad and promoted him after a month.
Cleveland re-signed him as an exclusive rights free agent this offseason but was among their final roster cuts this offseason. The Texans just recently signed him to their practice squad.
In 2019, Brown appeared in nine games for the Browns and caught two passes for 27 yards receiving and no touchdowns.
