Released from practice squad
Adams was cut from Houston's practice squad Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Analysis: Adams, who was one of several tight ends in the Texans' orbit since training camp, was let go to make room for linebacker Nate Hall. He appeared in one game for Houston this season, the regular-season opener, before landing on the team's practice squad.

Snags practice squad spot
Adams (illness) was re-signed to the Texans' practice squad, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Analysis: Adams was cut from the Texans' practice squad Oct. 9 with a non-football illness but, as evidenced by this news, he has shaken off the illness. He'll hope familiarity with the organization can lead to a call-up to earn a 53-man roster spot.

Signed to Texans' practice squad
Adams was signed to Houston's practice squad Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Analysis: One day after being released by Houston, Adams rejoins the organization he's been with since training camp. The Texans are carrying a surplus of tight ends, so they let Adams go to create room for safety Mike Adams, who was added to the active roster this week.

Cut by Houston
Adams was waived by the Texans on Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Analysis: Adams appeared in one game for the Texans this season -- that being the season opener against New Orleans -- and he only saw the field on five special teams plays. The 2016 sixth-round pick spent his first two seasons with the Giants, catching 24 passes for 214 yards and a touchdown. He'll now have to find another opportunity elsewhere.

Nabs roster spot
Adams made the Texans roster, becoming the fourth tight end on the depth chart.
Analysis: As of now, the Texans are opting to keep five tight ends with Kahale Warring (concussion) likely headed to the injured reserve list. Adams caught a pair of touchdowns during preseason and is in a crowded position group that includes 2018 draft picks Jordan Akins and Jordan Thomas, along with veteran Darren Fells, considered the best blocker of the bunch.

Productive in preseason opener
Adams caught three passes for 17 yards and a touchdown in the Texans' preseason-opening loss to the Packers.
Analysis: He's one of five tight ends in camp competing for what is expected to be three roster spots. With both Jordan Thomas and Kahale Warring nursing hamstring injuries, Adams could get increased looks during the second preseason contest Saturday against the Lions and submit more evidence that he belongs on the 53-man roster for Week 1 of the regular season.

Inks contract with Texans
The Texans signed Adams to a reserve/future contract on Tuesday.
Analysis: Adams joined Houston's practice squad in early October after spending his first two years in the league with the Giants. A 2016 sixth-round pick, Adams has 24 receptions for 214 yards and a touchdown in 29 career games. He'll look to add depth to Houston's young tight end group in 2019.
