The Houston Texans are expected to add running back Deuce Vaughn to their roster, as reported by Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston. This decision is aimed at enhancing the team's depth for the upcoming preseason.
Vaughn's addition comes in light of injuries affecting several players in the running back position, including Jawhar Jordan, who has a hip injury, British Brooks with a hand injury, and Noah Whittington, who is dealing with an ankle issue. These circumstances may lead to increased playing time for Vaughn during the preseason.
Previously, Vaughn played for the Dallas Cowboys and last took the field in an NFL game in the 2024 regular season, where he had 17 carries totaling 70 rushing yards across seven games. Details about his contract and specific role with the Texans have yet to be revealed.
