To make room for new receiver Andy Jones on the roster, the Texans placed running back Akeem Hunt on waivers.
Hunt was one of six running backs kept on the 53-man roster Saturday when the Texans released and waived 37 players.
Hunt had a good offseason program and training camp before getting injured and missing what turned out to be the last pressing game at New Orleans.

Hunt was w/ huge group of #Texans today w/ @JJWatt donations. And been working on raising supplies while he was in Houston hurt. - Adam Wexler
