Roy Lopez: Waived/injured by Texans
Houston will waive/injured Lopez due to a strained hamstring, and the two sides are expected to reach an injury settlement, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Texans' Roy Lopez: Works into rotation
Lopez has worked himself into the defensive-line rotation, Aaron Reiss of The Athletic reports.
Lopez, Houston's sixth-round pick in 2021, has been rotating with players that appear to be roster locks. He had sacks in each of the first two preseason games. "He's jumped into a group of guys as a rookie with some veteran guys that know how to practice and know how to play, and he has fell right in there," Houston head coach David Culley said. With the switch to a 4-3 defense, there are more opportunities for interior linemen.
