Texans GM said it was difficult cutting this wide receiver

Nick Caserio admitted that there are always difficult decisions to be made in the final roster cuts. One of the harder ones from this year appears to be WR Noah Brown. After spending his first few seasons in Dallas, Brown stood out last season on the Texans including having a two game stretch of over 300 yards.

The GM was asked directly about his thoughts on cutting Noah Brown.

On if availability just finally caught up to WR Noah Brown

Nick: Yeah. I mean, Noah [Brown] is a good football player. Noah is going to be on a team. There's no question about it. He helped us win, honestly, probably two games last year by himself. I mean, good football player. We understood going into this as we constructed the team that we weren't going to be able to keep everybody, right? So got to make some hard decisions. I would say that was a difficult decision. So, we kept the players that we felt right now that could help us the most. I mean, I would say Noah, I mean, certainly part of that discussion. In the end we just made the decision to move on, but have a lot of respect for Noah. He is probably one of the toughest players that we had on this football team. He took advantage of the opportunities last year. Again, he won us two football games literally by himself, the Cincinnati game and Tampa Bay game. He had 1,000 [325 yards] receiving in two games, whatever it was. Good football player. He's going to be on a team fairly soon and probably going to help a team win. Those are the players that you wish them well. Can't keep everybody. But certainly wish him well. I have a lot of respect for Noah.
