The Houston Texans have added quarterback Brett Rypien to their roster after placing Graham Mertz on season-ending injured reserve. This decision highlights the team's need for additional quarterback depth.
Rypien, who has prior experience with the Cincinnati Bengals, appeared in one regular-season game in 2025, where he took three offensive snaps. He will act as an emergency backup behind starters C.J. Stroud and Davis Mills.
Details about the terms of Rypien's contract have not been released.
