It was a fine deal for a competent receiver and a much better option than the stale, low sodium saltines available in the cupboard. Thomas played in seven games and caught 23 passes for 237 yards for the Texans until his season ended prematurely in Philadelphia with a torn Achilles.At 31 years old, some questioned whether DT would come back to play football again, though his status in Houston wasn’t questioned; he was due $14 million to play in Houston in 2019, and there was no way the Texans were going to pay him that even if he was healthy.What happened next was a no-brainer. The Texans released him, making the veteran wideout a free agent.Thomas is in fact going to play more football, even at 31 years old and after tearing his Achilles. Yesterday Nick Martin Color Rush Jersey , Thomas signed with the New England Patriots, where he will hang out with Julian Edelman, Philip Dorsett, and maybe Josh Gordon. Even if it didn’t work out the way he and the Texans hoped, it was a decent trade Houston made bringing in Thomas. We will see him back in Houston next season when the Texans host the Patriots. Houston may be set at the position with the Jordan twins and Kahale Warring." />Skip to main contentclockmenumore-arrownoyesHorizontal - WhiteBattle Red Bloga Houston Texans communityLog In or Sign UpLog InSign UpFanpostsFanshotsTexansOddsAboutMastheadCommunity GuidelinesStubHubMoreAll 322 blogs on Horizontal - WhiteFanposts Fanshots Texans StoriesScheduleRosterStatsYahoo Texans NewsYahoo Texans Team PageYahoo Texans ReportYahoo Texans Depth ChartYahoo Texans TransactionsYahoo Texans PhotosOdds About Masthead Community Guidelines StubHub ✕How Good Can The Texans Tight Ends Be? New,25commentsHouston may be set at the position with the Jordan twins and Kahale Warring.CDTShareTweetShareShareHow Good Can The Texans Tight Ends Be? John Glaser-USA TODAY SportsWhile a lot of attention is aimed at Houston’s offensive line woes, its lack of defensive backfield upgrades, and overall seemingly poor offseason “improvements”. There is one position group that actually might be set for a long time to come. With the emergence of Jordan Thomas and Jordan Akins last season, also known as the Jordan Twins, Houston seemed better at the tight end position than they had been in a long time. Essentially since the end of the Kubiak era that saw Owen Daniels and James Casey providing quality play at the position Alfred Blue Color Rush Jersey , the team has been searching for quality in the tight end role. Now, it seems, they finally have it. The tight end role isn’t as glamorous as wide receiver, or as heralded as pretty much any other skill position on the team, when your tight end group is lacking, it’s very obvious. It was just a few years ago that head coach Bill O’Brien was getting burned in effigy over the lack of tight end production, but now, he may have that situation well in hand. Projected starters:TE1 Jordan ThomasTE2 Kahale Kuio Kalani Michael Wodehouse Warring (yes, that’s actually his full name)TE3 Jordan AkinsThomas had 20 catches for 215 yards last season, including 4 touchdowns. Akins had 17 catches for 225 yards. Both helped out in the blocking game Will Fuller V Color Rush Jersey , but should see an exponential leap forward with a full off-season under their belts. Signal the 3rd round pick, Kahale Kuio Kalani Michael Wodehouse Warring - can we just call him Wodehouse? I think William Wallace would approve. YoutubeDuring rookie minicamp, Kahale Warring turned heads and caught the attention of several reporters, as well as teammates and coaches. Monday Morning QuarterbackTexans WireAaron WilsonWith Deshaun Watson’s ability to improvise behind a suspect offensive line, having someone other than DeAndre Hopkins as his safety valve is imperative. When Houston can put two of these tight ends on the field, along with Lamar Miller and Will Fuller V, the Houston offense suddenly looks incredibly scary. Hopefully, Bill O’Brien and newly minted offensive coordinator Tim Kelly can take that paper potential and capitalize on it come game day. What do you think? Excited to cheer on the Jordan Twins and Wodehouse? Counting the minutes until Ryan Griffith is promoted to ex-Texan? Still lamenting the loss of Owen Daniels? Give us your thoughts on the tight ends, offense and more in the comments section.
