It's another huge move by the Texans, who have also added Robert Woods, Jimmie Ward, Hassan Ridgeway, and Noah Brown, among others, this offseason.

Just today, the Texans have signed free agents Schultz, O.J. Howard, Jordan Davis, Jaquan Johnson and Devin Singletary.

While Schultz may not be a major downfield threat, he could serve as a valuable security option for the Texans' incoming rookie quarterback.

Overall, the signing of Schultz is a promising move for the Texans as they continue to rebuild their team.
