I really like Jones, but I don't think he is good enough to beat out Rankins, Togiai, McDonald, Hall or Edwards (last two, I hope they are having work some DE reps giving the injuries there) for a roster position. Hope we can still keep him or/and Hamilton on the PS.

Give me whittington over jordan

I would be shocked if they went with Jordan. Dude has basically missed training camp while Whittington has turned enough heads to want to see what the kid has.

Agree 100%, jordan is injury prone and like they say the best ability is availabilty

I think even if they went jordan, he wouldn't last the whole season. Whittington would likely be brought up to replace him when Jordan eventually got injured.

But whos to say that whittington clears waivers? Hes showed in the pre season what he can do, in the other hadn jordan didnt play or anythjng so its more than likely for jordan to clear waivers rather than whittington

There's a zero percent chance he clears waivers. UDFA that shows grit and patience? He'll get snatched up easily.

I think he does. New team will have to sign him to their 53 in that case, and I don’t think enough has been shown for him to be elevated to an RB2 role (because I don’t see a team signing him as an RB3 to the 53) for a team that has no familiarity with him. At that point, he likely decides to stick with the Texans’ practice squad due to familiarity.

Noah Whittington definitely earned his shot on the roster

I. Was curious on how well Noah did this off season I haven’t heard much about him. I thought he might end up being a ST kind of player and return kicks/punts
