The Houston Texans may have found a gem in second-year wide receiver Amari Rodgers, who was acquired by the team via the waiver system last week. After finding himself on the outs with the Green Bay Packers the former third-round pick was in need of a fresh start, and Houston was more than happy to take a literal waiver on his services.
An interesting development has been the speculation around Rodgers’ use in the Texans’ system. Instead of relying on him to catch passes, it seems the team is more inclined to start him as a returner on special teams. The unit’s coordinator, Frank Ross, spoke to reporters on Wednesday about how thrilled he is to have Rodgers in the mix and was clearly excited about the new weapon he has at his disposal.
