Add another wide receiver to the Houston Texans' roster ahead of Thursday's preseason game.
According to the latest transaction list, the Texans have signed veteran wide receiver Juwann Winfree to the 90-man roster. In a corresponding move, Houston has placed linebacker Sione Takitaki on the reserve/injured list.

Winfree comes with a bit more NFL experience than most players looking to make the active roster. He was a sixth-round pick in the 2019 draft and has appeared in 23 regular-season games for three teams— most recently with the Indianapolis Colts in 2024.
Winfree was also a member of the Texans' squad last preseason before being waived. He spent the 2025 season on the Saskatchewan Roughriders of the Canadian Football League.
A former third-round pick out of BYU, Takitaki totaled 292 career tackles, two interceptions, four sacks and a forced fumble.
The Texans open the preseason on Thursday against the Los Angeles Chargers.
