JOSH MCCOWN
Texans’ Josh McCown had ‘hard’ conversation with Eagles before leaving practice squad Former Philadelphia Eagles and New York Jets QB Josh McCown signed with the Houston Texans' 53-man roster earlier this month.
Moves to active roster McCown was lifted from the commissioner's exempt list and he now joins the Texans' active roster, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Impact McCown was claimed by Houston from the Eagles' practice Nov. 4, but he had to clear NFL COVID-19 protocols before being able to join his new team in person. The 41-year-old appeared in three games for Philadelphia last season with just five passes attempted, and he went 5-11 over two seasons as a starter for the Jets between 2017 and 2018 while throwing to a 19:13 TD:INT. McCown will slot in as the Texans' third-string quarterback behind franchise quarterback Deshaun Watson and $4 million backup AJ McCarron.
