The Houston Texans are looking into the possibility of signing cornerback Jaden Davis, who previously played for the Arizona Cardinals. Recently, Davis was medically cleared to return to play and took part in a workout with the Texans, according to KPRC 2's Aaron Wilson.
Davis was drafted by the Cardinals in the sixth round of the 2024 NFL Draft, being the 226th overall selection. His recent workout was showcased in a video on social media, demonstrating his readiness for the field.
The Texans aim to strengthen their cornerback lineup, which has been challenged by injuries this season, an ongoing issue since 2025. Currently, Jalen Pitre, who plays safety, has stepped into the nickelback position, while Jaylin Smith, a third-round draft pick in 2025, has missed a considerable amount of his rookie season due to injuries.
The Athletic's draft guide highlighted Davis as one of the top remaining prospects. NFL draft analyst Lance Zierlein noted his foot speed and agility as a nickel corner, while also suggesting that he needs to work on his anticipation skills to improve his performance in the NFL.
Further developments regarding Davis's potential signing with the Texans are anticipated as the situation unfolds.
