The Texans and Winovich agreed to a one-year contract worth up to $2.75 million Monday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. After having spent three years with the Patriots and one season in Cleveland, Winovich is now set to pursue his fifth NFL campaign with the Texans following Monday's development. The 27-year-old defensive end tallied 20 tackles and one sack across eight games in 2022.

Winovich (coach's decision) is inactive Sunday against the Buccaneers. Winovich hadn't played since Week 2 after spending several weeks on IR with a hamstring injury. Despite returning and playing Week 11 against the Bills, he'll be inactive Sunday against Tampa Bay.

Winovich (hamstring) was activated off of the injured reserve Saturday. Winovich is expected to return to the lineup Sunday against the Bills. Winovich has been out since Week 2 and only recorded one tackle in the two games he played. The fourth-year defensive end figures to take on a rotational role behind Myles Garrett and Jadeveon Clowney, with hopes of aiding a pass rush that has been middle of the pack all year.

Winovich (hamstring) returned to practice Wednesday, Anthony Poisal of the Browns' official site reports. Winovich, who played in the first preseason game, apparently sustained the injury then and has been sidelined since. He's one of five defensive ends on the initial 53-man roster announced Tuesday. That means he could have a substantial role in the rotation if healthy, or it's a spot that can be jettisoned if a player at another position is deemed a better roster fit.

Winovich was on the sidelines during practices Sunday and Monday due to a left hamstring injury, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports. Winovich, acquired in the offseason from the Patriots, is one of a group of players riding exercise bikes on the sideline. He had a pair of tackles and played 23 snaps in the preseason opener last week against Jacksonville. When healthy, Winovich is slated to back up Jadeveon Clowney.
