Andre Chachere - Pro Football Rumors

Chachere is a 2018 UDFA from San Jose State who briefly spent some time on Detroit’s active roster last year. Jones is a 2018 UDFA from Nebraska who has been on and off Arizona’s practice squad the past two years. He earned some real playing time earlier this season, and started the team’s Week 3 loss to the Panthers. He was waived this past week, but has quickly been re-signed to the practice squad.

Texans Finalize 53-Man Roster

September 1st, 2018 at 2:31pm CST by Sam Robinson

With cuts due this afternoon, the Texans made theirs official. This includes all-time punter great Shane Lechler, which surfaced on Friday.

The Texans also released Joe Webb, thinning out their quarterback room to just Deshaun Watson and Brandon Weeden.

Houston will begin its season without the services of backup running back D’Onta Foreman as well. Still recovering from his season-ending injury sustained in November of last year, Foreman will begin the season on the Texans’ Reserve/PUP list. He won’t be eligible to play until after Week 6.

As for the rest of Houston’s Saturday roster decisions, here’s who will not appear on the 53-man group to start the season:

Released:

P Shane Lechler
FB Jay Prosch
QB Joe Webb

Waived:

OLB Davin Bellamy
WR Quan Bray
S Ibraheim Campbell
CB Andre Chachere
RB Lavon Coleman
OL Anthony Coyle
S Treston Decoud
G Mason Gentry
ILB Kennan Gilchrist

Texans Cut WR Braxton Miller

August 31st, 2018 at 12:44pm CST by Zachary Links

The Texans cut a boatload of players on Friday, allowing them to inch closer to the 53-man max. Here’s the rundown, with all links going to Twitter unless noted otherwise:

TE Stephen Anderson (Twitter link via Mark Berman of FOX 26)
WR Braxton Miller (Twitter link via Berman)
WR Quan Bray (Twitter link via Berman)
CB Andre Chachere (Twitter link via Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle)
RB Lavon Coleman (Twitter link via Wilson)
OT Anthony Coyle (Twitter link via Berman)
S Treston Decoud (Twitter link via Berman)
CB Bryce Jones (via Wilson)
OT Jaryd Jones-Smith (Twitter link via Wilson)
DL Darius Kilgo (Twitter link via Wilson)
S Corey Moore (Twitter link via Berman)
DT Kingsley Opara (Twitter link via Berman)
K Nick Rose (via Wilson)
OL David Quessenberry (via Berman)
RB Terry Swanson (Twitter link via Berman)
WR Jester Weah (Twitter link via Berman)

Miller is the biggest name of the bunch, but his release does not come as a huge surprise. The former third-round pick out of Ohio State has posted a grand total of 34 catches for 261 yards and two scores over the last two years, and he failed to really stand out in the preseason.

Will Fuller, Bruce Ellington and fourth-round pick Keke Coutee seem likely to make the cut behind star receiver DeAndre Hopkins, and it remains to be seen whether Houston will carry five or six receivers in total.
