The Texans signed Braswell from the practice squad to the active roster Wednesday.
Braswell played 17 regular-season games with the Buccaneers in 2025, logging 30 tackles (21 solo), including 1.0 sacks, over 281 defensive snaps and 204 special-teams snaps. The defensive end will now provide additional depth to a Texans line that may be without Will Anderson (ankle) and Jadeveon Clowney (knee) in Sunday's matchup against the Cowboys.
