Texans Bring Back Logan Brock
The Houston Texans brought back to the practice squad tight end Logan Brock to fill a void that was left by rookie tight end Phillip Supernaw, who was injured in practice this week (stress fracture in right foot). Supernaw beat out Logan for an invite back to the practice squad after cuts were made after the final preseason game. Brock is 6-3 and 248 lbs. and was signed before camp out of TCU where he was used primarily as a blocking option. He showed some good work in camp and the preseason games and it was a toss-up between him and Supernaw for a practice squad spot….

We enlisted the help of Shane Hallam of Draft Countdown to give us some quick thoughts on the entire rookie class of the Texans.

Texans Profiles: The UDFA
Very impressed with the Houston Texans draft class, the team did not stop after the draft getting some more work done. The Texans front office has put together what appears to be one of the more impressive undrafted rookie free agent groups we have seen in some time.
