Cornell Powell News: Cut by Houston

The Texans waived Powell on Tuesday.

After being drafted by Kansas City in the fifth round of the 2021 NFL Draft, Powell has had a hard time finding opportunities in the league, as he's played in only three regular-season games (all in 2022). The Clemson product won't make Houston's initial 53-man roster despite shining in his lone preseason contest with the club, catching six of seven targets for 63 yards Saturday versus Detroit.
