The Houston Texans are reportedly set to sign running back Deuce Vaughn, as indicated by Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston. This addition aims to strengthen the team's depth ahead of the preseason.
Vaughn's signing comes in response to injuries affecting several players in the running back position, including Jawhar Jordan, who is dealing with a hip issue, British Brooks with a hand injury, and Noah Whittington, who has an ankle problem. These circumstances may increase Vaughn's chances for playing time during the preseason.
Previously, Vaughn played for the Dallas Cowboys and last appeared in an NFL game in the 2024 regular season, where he had 17 carries for a total of 70 rushing yards over seven games. Details regarding the specifics of his contract and his expected role with the Texans have not yet been made public.
