The Texans made a pair of moves involving players on their injured reserve list on Wednesday.
The NFL's transaction report for July 1 shows that they waived defensive back Ajani Carter and linebacker Xavier Thomas. Both players were waived with injury designations earlier in the offseason and will be free to sign with other clubs if they go unclaimed.
Carter played 36 special teams snaps in two appearances for the Texans last season. He also spent time with the Chiefs after going undrafted out of Houston.
Thomas was a 2024 fifth-round pick by the Cardinals. He had 10 tackles, 2.5 sacks and a forced fumble in 18 games for Arizona.
