The Predators
Napsal: pát 21. zář 2018 3:15:12HOUSTON (AP) — Receiver Braxton Miller Kenny Moore Jersey , a third-round pick in 2016, was among those cut by the Houston Texans as they trimmed their roster to 53 players for the regular season.
Miller was twice named Big Ten offensive player of the year as a quarterback at Ohio State before transitioning to receiver after an injury. He saw limited action in two seasons with the Texans, finishing his career in Houston with 34 receptions for 261 yards and two touchdowns in 21 games.
Also released on Saturday was guard David Quessenberry, a 2013 draft pick who spent years fighting cancer before overcoming the disease to make his NFL debut last season. He spent most of last season on the practice squad before being elevated to the active roster and playing in Houston’s last two games in 2017.
Safety Andre Hal, who was diagnosed in June with Hodgkin lymphoma, a cancer of the blood cells and was placed on the reserve/non-football illness list.
The Texans also placed running back D’Onta Foreman on the physically unable to perform list as he recovers after rupturing his left Achilles tendon in November. He’ll miss the first six weeks of the season. Foreman, a third-round pick last year, ran for 327 yards and two touchdowns.
Houston also released safety Corey Moore, who played 31 games with 11 starts over three seasons with the team Morgan Moses Jersey , and Joe Webb, who was competing with Brandon Weeden to back up quarterback Deshaun Watson.
New York Giants cornerback Janoris Jenkins has been trying to keep his focus on football since the body of a 25-year-old friend was found in his New Jersey home last month.
Jenkins’ brother, William H. Jenkins, was charged with aggravated manslaughter days after the body of Roosevelt Rene was found in the football player’s Fair Lawn home on June 26.
Addressing the media on Sunday for the first time about the death, Jenkins said he has not spoken to his brother since he was arrested by New York State Police late last month. He reiterated that he was not in the house when Rene died.
”My main focus has always been football,” Jenkins said. ”Things that happened, I can’t control, because I wasn’t there. Just coming back, being with my team http://www.dallascowboysteamonline.com/tony-romo-jersey , just being excited to be there. … I haven’t talked to (his brother), but I will, see where his head was at, and as far as that, I’ll leave it at that. It’s shocking. But, you know, I’ve still got to come and play football.”
Janoris Jenkins, who is entering his third season with the Giants after signing a five-year, $62.5 million contract as a free agent http://www.washingtonredskinsteamonline.com/ryan-anderson-jersey , refused to say much else about the incident.
”It is difficult but at the end of the day you have to be a pro,” Janoris said. ”Things are going to happen in life. Some things you can’t control and this is one of those situations.”
Jenkins has been focused since the Giants starting practicing four days ago. He had an interception on the first day.
”It doesn’t make me feel like I am ready,” Jenkins said. ”It makes me feel like I am taking steps to being ready. Like, I said continuing to work, getting better and being there for my team.”
Like the Giants (3-13), Jenkins struggled last season. He was suspended for a game for violating team rules in late October and eventually had his season end in late November by an ankle injury that required surgery.
Jenkins said he spent the offseason strengthening his ankle and he is excited about the 3-4 defense that new coordinator James Bettcher has installed.
”It’s aggressive, lets players play a little and not be robots,” Jenkins said, adding he also has been impressed with the new business-like attitude that fellow cornerback Eli Apple has displayed so far.
Jenkins also is enjoying the opportunity to play against star receiver Odell Beckham Jr. in practice every day.
”It just feels good because you know you can compete in practice against a top receiver Nick Kwiatkoski Jersey ,” said Jenkins, who has 16 interceptions in six seasons. ”Me and him going at it every day; he is going to win, I am going to win. He might win the whole day, I might win. But it is only getting us better.”
