Fails to make Houston's roster
Watson was released by the Texans on Sunday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Watson was in camp with the Texans after appearing in three regular-season games with Houston in 2025. The 30-year-old wide receiver is a veteran of 93 NFL games, so he may garner some interest as a depth option for a team in search of help in the passing game.
