  • Dennis Houston: Lands new opportunity

    Houston (undisclosed) signed with Tampa Bay's practice squad Wednesday, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

    Houston was last with the Giants during training camp and was ultimately waived from injured reserve due to an undisclosed injury. Now healthy, the Western Illinois product will bolster the Buccaneers' organizational depth at wide receiver as the team deals with multiple injuries at the position.

  • Giants' Dennis Houston: Put on IR

    Houston (undisclosed) reverted to injured reserve Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

  • Dennis Houston: Waived/injured by Giants

    The Giants waived/injured Houston (undisclosed) on Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

    Houston had been dealing with a hand injury since the beginning of August, but he was able to suit up for Saturday's preseason contest against the Texans. It's unclear whether he's currently dealing with the same injury or a separate one, but he will now go on waivers. If Houston goes unclaimed, then he would revert to the Giants' injured reserve and be forced to miss all of 2024 unless the two sides reach an agreement on an injury settlement.

  • Giants' Dennis Houston: Returns to action

    Houston (hand) did not catch his lone target during Saturday's preseason loss at the Texans.

    Houston had been missing time with a hand issue, but he's now apparently back in playing shape. However, he's probably on the outside looking in at a spot on the Giants' final 53-man roster for 2024.

  • Giants' Dennis Houston: Dealing with hand injury

    Houston did not participate in Tuesday's joint practice with the Lions due to a hand injury, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.

    The severity of the injury isn't clear, but it puts Houston's availability for the Giants' first preseason game against the Lions on Thursday in jeopardy. His only playing time in the NFL came with the Cowboys in 2022, when he caught two passes for 16 yards in two regular-season games. Houston spent all of 2023 on the Giants' practice squad and signed a reserve/future contract with Big Blue in January in the hopes that he can catch onto the 53-man roster at the conclusion of training camp.

  • Giants' Dennis Houston: Inks reserve/future deal with G-Men

    The Giants signed Houston to a reserve/future contract Monday.

    Houston had an excellent senior season for Western Illinois in 2022, recording 1,015 yards and six touchdowns on 90 catches and adding 63 yards and two scores on five carries. The wideout's lone NFL regular-season action to date came in 2022, when he caught two passes on six targets for 16 yards over two games with Dallas. Houston spent most of last season on the Giants' practice squad and was elevated in Week 17 but didn't see any action. With the reserve/future contract, he'll have a chance to compete for a roster spot during training camp this summer.

  • Dennis Houston: Returns to practice squad

    The Giants reverted Houston to their practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

    Houston got his first elevation of the season ahead of Sunday's loss to the Rams, but he ended up as an inactive for the contest. The Giants have a healthy wide-receiver corps heading into their regular-season finale, so Houston may not be among the team's priorities for another elevation.

  • Giants' Dennis Houston: Active roster bound

    The Giants elevated Houston to their active roster Saturday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

    The 24-year-old wideout's elevation could be an indication that Wan'Dale Robinson (quadriceps, questionable) is leaning toward not suiting up Sunday. Houston most recently appeared in an NFL game in 2022 with the Cowboys, and he'll likely get the chance to contribute to the Giants' special teams unit in Week 17.

  • Dennis Houston: Lands on New York's practice squad

    Houston was added to the Giants' practice squad Thursday, Michael Elsen of the team's official site reports.

    Houston was waived by the Cowboys on Tuesday after spending most of the 2022 season on Dallas' practice squad. He'll work to acclimate himself to the Giants' playbook as he awaits an opportunity to be moved up to the team's active roster.

  • Dennis Houston: Doesn't make final cut

    Houston was waived by the Cowboys on Tuesday, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    Houston spent the majority of last season on Dallas' practice squad, and there's a good chance the 24-year-old returns there again. The Western Illinois product did suit up twice in 2022 for the team though, recording two catches on six targets for 16 yards.

  • Cowboys' Dennis Houston: Sticks with Dallas

    Dallas signed Houston to a reserve/future contract Wednesday, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.

    Houston signed with the Cowboys as an undrafted free agent out of Western Illinois last spring and made Dallas' initial 53-man roster at the conclusion of the preseason. He caught two of five targets for 16 yards in a Week 1 loss to Tampa Bay but failed to secure his lone target in Week 2 and was then waived ahead of Michael Gallup's (ankle) season debut. After clearing waivers, Houston latched on with the Cowboys' practice squad and spent the remainder of the campaign there. With his new deal, Houston will be able to stick around the organization and look to stake a more permanent claim to a roster spot in 2023.

  • Dennis Houston: Returns to Dallas

    Houston signed with the Cowboys' practice squad Thursday.

    Houston initially joined Dallas as an undrafted free agent out of Western Illinois and caught two of five passes for 16 yards in Week 1. However, the 23-year-old failed to haul in his lone target while playing 32 percent of the Cowboys' offensive snaps in Week 2 and was waived by the team Tuesday. With No. 2 wideout Michael Gallup (knee) likely set to return Monday, Houston will serve as a potential gameday elevation should Dallas' receiving corps sustain any further injuries this season.

  • Dennis Houston: Goes to waivers

    Dallas waived Houston on Tuesday, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

    The undrafted rookie out of Western Illinois earned a spot on the Cowboys' 53-man roster with an impressive offseason, but with Michael Gallup (knee) nearing a return, Houston was let go. Unless he's claimed by another team during the current waiver period, he'll become an unrestricted free agent, though he could find a spot on a practice squad.

  • Cowboys' Dennis Houston: Quiet pro debut

    Houston caught two of five passes for 16 yards in Sunday's loss to the Buccaneers.

    The Tampa Bay secondary focused its attention on CeeDee Lamb (2-29-0 on a team-high 11 targets), but Houston wasn't able to do much against lesser coverage. The undrafted rookie earned a spot on the roster with a strong offseason, but with Dak Prescott (hand) now set to miss multiple weeks and Cooper Rush taking over under center, the entire Cowboys passing game figures to take a big step back. Houston also will face additional competition for snaps and targets once Michael Gallup (knee) is cleared to play, something that could happen as soon as Week 2 against the Bengals.
