Texans Upcoming free agents

BTW, Demaryous Thomas has a $14,000,000 cap hit in 2019 but only a $4,500,000 salary and $0 cap hit for 2018. I suggest they cut him before the new NFL year to free up more cap space. He won't return investment while healing a torn achilles. Maybe they can work out an injury settlement.

Where's "My Guys", haven't heard from him lately ? I though he'd be over here running his yapper about how the Colts beat the Texans in the W-C game,
but he does offer some value to the Board with his personal scouting trips to Mobil, AL for the Senior bowl which is coming up this week.

You may be saying the same thing but if he is cut he has zero cap hit or penalty. This means he will 100% be cut.

I am but I'm not sure it is that easy when the player has a major injury.I think the league rules prohibit cutting an injured player without a settlement.
