Report: Texans waive S Tyree Gillespie from injured reserve

The Houston Texans are parting ways with Tyree Gillespie.

According to Aaron Wilson from KPRC-TV, the Texans are waiving the safety from the injured reserve with a settlement.

The former Las Vegas Raiders 2021 fourth-rounder was claimed off waivers by the Texans in early May ahead of their organized team activities. The Texans placed Gillespie on waived/injured reserve on Aug. 23 as they rounded the corner into playing their final preseason game.

Gillespie, 24, played 11 games for the Raiders in his rookie season. Las Vegas dealt the former Missouri product to the Tennessee Titans midway through 2022 preseason, although Gillespie did not make the Titans’ final roster. Gillespie played three games for the Jacksonville Jaguars.
