Texas Tech has established a tradition of sending receivers to the NFL. Michael Crabtree
Trent Taylor Jersey , Wes Welker, Danny Amendola and Jakeem Grant have represented the Red Raiders in recent years.
The school had only two players selected this year, and both were wideouts. The Texans selected Keke Coutee in the fourth round, and Dylan Cantrell went to the Chargers in the sixth.
Coutee made second-team All-Big 12 honors last season, catching 93 passes for 1
Deion Sanders Jersey ,429 yards and 10 touchdowns.
Penciled in as the Texans’ returner, Coutee is competing with Braxton Miller for the slot position.
“He’s in the long mold of those Red Raiders,” Texans receivers coach John Perry said, via Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle. “He’s done a good job. He’s working hard. He shows up every day. He’s done everything we’ve asked him to do. If he continues to do that, I can see him moving forward.”
Although Miller is “on the right path” after offseason workouts
Jeremy Hill Jersey , he hasn’t found a way to stay on the field. He missed 11 games his first two seasons, making only 34 catches for 261 yards and two touchdowns.
That gives Coutee a chance to contribute as a rookie.
“He’s only getting better,” Texans receiver DeAndre Hopkins said. “He’s always hanging around, seeing what I’m doing in between periods, asking me questions. The guy can play football. That’s going to take care of itself. Coming in
Joey Bosa Jersey , learning this offense, getting in his playbook, and that’s what he’s been doing.”
The Bills have rotated quarterbacks AJ McCarron and Nathan Peterman with the first team throughout the offseason and head coach Sean McDermott said on Sunday that they’d keep doing things the same way if everyone is healthy.
McCarron isn’t healthy right now, but the team is still rotating quarterbacks. McDermott said on Monday, via multiple reporters
O. J. Howard Jersey , that rookie Josh Allen will work with the starters while Peterman works with the second team in a reversal of how things went in practice on Sunday.
McCarron is out after getting hurt in Friday’s preseason game. He is getting a second opinion on what was reported to be a hairline fracture to his collarbone.
Allen was 9-of-13 for 60 yards and a touchdown against the Browns and McDermott called the outing a “step in the right direction.” McDermott didn’t say what he’d need to see for Allen to keep walking all the way into the starting job, but said Monday that the competition remains open for the two healthy quarterbacks.
