Houston Texans general manager Nick Caserio is still working through the draft classes from the Brian Gaine era (2018-19). Caserio let the only player from Gaine’s first draft walk in free agency in safety Justin Reid.
The Texans’ 2019 draft class is now under the microscope throughout the 2022 season. The club picked up the fifth-year option for right tackle Tytus Howard, which buys them some time. However, guard Max Scharping, the last remaining player on the roster from the 2019 draft, is entering the final year of his deal.
Caserio joined “Payne & Pendergast” on Sports Radio 610 [KILT-AM] June 16 to talk about how the club handles players who are starting to round the corner into their contracts being expired.
