Breaking: Houston Texans are signing WR Alex Erickson to a one year deal
We are learning that Alex Erickson, the solid pass catcher and return man formerly of the Cincinnati Bengals is signing a one-year deal with the Houston Texans.
Erickson played college football at Wisconsin and was signed by the Bengals as an undrafted free agent in 2016. He was the only undrafted free agent to make the Bengals’ final roster that year.
Erickson posted his first career 100+ receiving yard game on October 20, 2019 against the Jacksonville Jaguars, where he finished with 137 receiving yards as the Bengals lost 17-27. Overall, Erickson has 93 career receptions for 1,086 yards and 1 touchdown. As a returner though, he has 3,746 yards.
Erickson is one of the most versatile players in the NFL, and has not been truly given a shot to showcase his talents. He could end up being a steal for the Texans.
