Texans' Dylan Horton: Lands on NFI list
The Texans placed Horton on the active/non-football illness list Thursday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Horton, who was placed on the reserve/non-football illness list back in November, subsequently revealed that he had been diagnosed with Stage 4 Hodgkin's lymphoma. The 2023 fourth-round pick is technically eligible to be activated at any point throughout training camp or the preseason, once ready to practice, but it's likely more realistic to still consider him out indefinitely. Horton is reportedly in remission and recently completed his final in-hospital treatment.

Texans' Dylan Horton: Lands with Houston
The Texans selected Horton in the fourth round of the 2023 NFL Draft, 109th overall.
Horton has bounced around schools and positions throughout his college career, beginning at New Mexico before transferring to TCU for his final three seasons. He was recruited as a safety but ultimately bulked up to 257 pounds and now specializes as a quick pass rusher. At 6-foot-4, he also has the length to contribute to slowing the opposing team's rushing attack. Horton will look to pair up with fellow rookie Will Anderson to anchor the Texans' defensive line for seasons to come.
