Texans Bring Back Dominique Robinson | Houston Texans News

Houston Texans are bringing back Dominique Robinson, a defensive end they released during final roster cuts, on a one-year deal worth up to $4 million — same terms as his previous contract. After recovering from a calf injury that sidelined him in preseason, Robinson, a fifth-round pick originally from Chicago, is returning for his fifth NFL season. Though he was a bit of a project player — even converting from wide receiver in college — his development earned praise from former Bears coaches. His return fills a critical need for the Texans, who’ve lost key edge rushers Ali Gaye and Dylan Horton for the season, and are still dealing with injuries to Jadeveon Clowney and Logan Hall. With depth at the defensive line a top priority, Robinson’s familiarity with the system and health make him a smart, timely addition as Houston heads into the regular season.
