Houston Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans explains what went into the decision to acquire cornerback Jason Verrett, who has been out of the league since 2021.
Few players in the history of the sport have showcased both incredible talent and brutal injury luck as much as cornerback Jason Verrett.
Verrett has played like one of the top cornerbacks in football essentially whenever he’s healthy. That qualifier, though, has proven to be an issue. Verrett has sustained two ACL tears, two Achilles tears, two shoulder labrum tears, and a number of other strains and pulls. It’s a testament to his perseverance that he returned to action in his last full season, 2020, but that sentiment is even more worthwhile now.
The likelihood that Verrett gets a call up to the 53-man roster isn’t yet clear, but that doesn’t mean Verrett, 32, can’t contribute in a meaningful way.Ryans is adamant about the importance of a winning mindset, and that’s been highlighted through the veterans he’s helped introduce to Houston, like cornerback Steven Nelson andPerhaps he’ll have advice for second-year corner Derek Stingley Jr., who got a glimpse of Verrett’s struggles when he was placed on injured reserve early in the season.
