Houston are adding another player to the outside linebacker position.
On Tuesday, according to The Baltimore Sun, the Texans will sign outside linebacker John Simon to the team's 53-man roster. Simon has been on the Ravens' practice squad since the beginning of the regular season.
Simon was a fourth-round draft pick by Baltimore out of Ohio State in 2013. He was mostly a special teams player a year ago, seeing limited time on defense. After having an excellent final preseason game, Simon was somewhat of a surprise cut before the regular season began.
He was placed on the practice squad after clearing waivers. After what could have been perceived as a slight by the Ravens' coaching staff, Simon will now be back on a 53-man roster.
