I have to agree here. Hill played a lot week 3, but he was mostly blocking so it went unnoticed. The Texans passed on Casey to take a blocking TE in Hill. That doesn't mean that they aren't excited about Casey as a playmaker. It just means that Hill is more likely to get in games in two TE sets to help the run game.
I thought there was a chance that Dreesen gets cut, which kinda sucked because I always liked him for some reason. Although Kubiak is known to cut vets early if they are going to have a hard time making the team so they have more time to find work. Which makes me think they could carry four TE. Casey's versatility probably makes that possible.
