Sounds good in theory but he already went through training camp, practice & games and according to this, is not eligible to be placed on the PUP list.
Any chance we kick the tires on him?: <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Report: <a href="https://twitter.com/hashtag/Eagles?src=hash">#Eagles</a> willing to listen to offers for Kenjon Barner | <a href="http://t.co/b7Pkky8BLe">http://t.co/b7Pkky8BLe</a></p>— SPORTSRADIO 94WIP (@SportsRadioWIP) <a href="https://twitter.com/SportsRadioWIP/status/639861436752072704">September 4, 2015</a></blockquote> <script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

I think that's being overly harsh and a little too what-have-you-done-for-me-lately. The Texans have been in playoff contention on the final day in three of the last four seasons. Four of the last six. Look, they squeezed in 6 and 2 win seasons into that stretch; they shouldn't hoist a banner or throw a parade. But the front office isn't incompetent. Where they fail is in finding players who can either sustain success, or eliminate the need to eventually thwart success with high-priced free agent acquisitions. But this front office has been... I mean, this isn't Matt Millen/Detroit. Let's not overstate it. It's a C-C+. No team that drafts Watt, Hopkins, Brown, Cushing trade for Schaub, sign Foster is an F...
