The NFL began Phase I of their offseason program by allowing teams to hold voluntary workouts on Monday. With a number of players across the league opting out due to COVID-19 concerns, the Houston Texans possibly had a significant turnout.
According to NFL reporter Aaron Wilson, multiple players participated in the Texans’ voluntary offseason conditioning program on the first day.
The names of the players that were in attendance have remained anonymous, but a social media post by one of the Texans’ tight ends hinted at three players who could be participating: tight end Jordan Akins, tight end Kahale Warring, and cornerback Keion Crossen.

The photo of three players likely attending workouts at NRG Stadium appeared on Warring’s Instagram story on Thursday.
Phase I of the NFL’s offseason program will run for four weeks from April 19 to May 14. The first of four phases will include a two-hour virtual Zoom meeting with the facility open for conditioning. As of now, all on-field workouts with coaches are prohibited until Phase II beginning on May 17.
