The Houston Texans have signed unrestricted free-agent wide receiver Keenan McCardell (San Diego Chargers). McCardell played last season with the Chargers, recording 36 receptions for 437 receiving yards, but zero touchdowns. He missed two games last season because of a calf injury. San Diego released McCardell in early March.
Houston will use McCardell as a starter opposite Pro-Bowl wide receiver Andre Johnson. Wide receivers Kevin Walter and Bethel Johnson were two options for the starting job before the team inked McCardell. Does he have the wheels to continue playing? His days as a productive receiver have long been over, and the No. 2 in the Houston offense has been unable to produce quality numbers. Last season, WR Eric Moulds caught 57 passes for 557 yards, scoring only one touchdown for Houston in that role.
