The Houston Texans made six roster moves ahead of their Week 5 tilt with the Atlanta Falcons Sunday at 12:00 p.m. Central Time at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
Houston at last activated right tackle Tytus Howard (fractured left hand) from injured reserve after a full week of practice. The Texans also activated punter Cam Johnston (calf).
The Texans declared cornerback D’Angelo Ross and linebacker Garret Wallow their standard elevations from the practice squad to the game day roster.
Given that defensive tackle Maliek Collins (abdomen) was on the team charter headed to Atlanta, even with a questionable designation, the club released defensive tackle Taylor Stallworth from the active roster, indicating Collins may be healthy enough to play.
Houston also signed defensive end Derek Rivers to the practice squad.
