Texans sign DT Javier Edwards to the practice squad

The 6-3, 335-pound interior defensive lineman went undrafted from Colorado. The Detroit Lions, New York Jets, Kansas City Chiefs, Minnesota Vikings, and Oakland Raiders were among teams who purportedly had interest in Edwards after the 2019 NFL draft.

A Blinn Junior College product, Edwards ran a 4.97 in his 40-yard dash, benched 31 times at 225 pounds, and squatted 550 pounds at his pro day workout. While at Colorado, Edwards earned all-Pac 12 honors while collecting 33 tackles, three tackles for loss, and a sack in nine starts with the Buffaloes as a junior.
