Texans Waive CB Vernon Hargreaves

Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reports that the Texans have waived CB Vernon Hargreaves on Friday. 

Hargreaves, 24, is a former first-round pick of the Buccaneers back in 2016. He was entering the final year of his four-year, $14.17 million rookie contract this offseason when the Buccaneers exercised his fifth-year option for 2020 at $9.9 million. 

The Buccaneers waived Hargreaves in November and he was later claimed by the Texans. 

According to OverTheCap.com, releasing Hargreaves will free up $9,594,000 of available cap space while creating no dead money.

In 2019, Hargreaves appeared in 15 games for the Buccaneers and Texans and recorded 61 tackles, one interception, a defensive touchdown, a fumble recovery and six passes defended.
