Why would they do that. Unless Christian's re-injury is going to take another 3 weeks. If Harris is out any significant time throughout the season, the thin LB depth becomes a glaring issue. Judon can play either side. It could have been Judon/ Al-Shaair/ Harris. Very nice. any other aging star OLBs on a rebuilding team? Can't think of any.
Is there an NFL site like MLB has with Baseball Reference which has game statistics for each individual game? I was trying to figure out how many different receivers led the Texans from week to week. I know Noah Brown did twice, but I don't know if Schultz did or Jordan did in games they had big plays. I'm looking for essentially an NFL Boxscore for each game.
While cumbersome to do, here is the list by week of leading receivers last season. Receiver Yards @ BAL Collins 80 IND Collins 146 @ JAX Collins 104 PIT Collins 168 @ ATL Schultz 65 NO Collins 80 BYE @ CAR Brown 57 TB Brown 153 @ CIN Brown 172 ARI Dell 149 JAX Collins 104 DEN Collins 191 @ NYJ Jordan 35 @ TEN Brown 82 CLE Schultz 61 TEN Brown 82 @ IND Collins 195 Collins 8, Brown 5, Schultz 2, Dell 1, Jordan 1
Meh... I wished he had come here, but Bullocks looks good out there Scott Erickson on X: "BREAKING: The #Falcons are signing All-Pro Safety Justin Simmons, per source. Specifics of the deal are yet to come, but likely to be the multi year deal Simmons was seeking. Pairing him with Jessie Bates is going to be a nightmare for offenses https://t.co/1CzUPkAx2u" / X
Thankfully he signed with someone. I was getting tired of all of our false hopes and speculating about Simmons. On to Cincinnati.
Now I am unhappy again... I thought Simmons was getting at minimum a 2 year, $18 - $20M deal from Falcons... he signed for 1 year, $8M ($7.5M gtd)... Texans could have done that deal... he would be a great mentor for Bullock & Jimmy insurance + insured Pitre was in just for short yardage and running downs (I would have also moved Pitre to ST). Ah well....
There's obviously a reason the Texans never seemed seriously interested in him. I have no idea what that reason is, but I trust Ryans and Caserio.
