“It has been incorrectly reported that my client Taylor Stallworth has been put on season-ending IR with the Houston Texans,” agent Brett Tessler previously wrote on social media. “We will be doing an injury settlement on a short-term injury which would allow him to return there in the coming months or sign elsewhere when ready.”
Stallworth has also played for the New Orleans Saints, Indianapolis Colts and Kansas City Chiefs after going undrafted out of South Carolina.
He has 57 career tackles, 4 1/2 sacks, two fumble recoveries and 13 quarterback hits.
