Roberts, 33, has spent the last two years with the Bills and has also been with Arizona, Washington, Detroit, Atlanta and the Jets in an 11-year deal that stretches back to when he was a third-round pick in 2010. He’s made the Pro Bowl as a return specialist each of the last three seasons.
Texans sign WR/KR Andre Roberts
Fantasy slant: Roberts' usage as a wide receiver has slowed to a crawl over the last four seasons. Roberts has not surpassed 80 yards receiving total in any season since 2016. He has, however, excelled as a returner, which is the role he will fill in Houston. Roberts led the NFL in kick return yardage (1,174) in 2018 and yards per return (30.0) this past season. – Derek Brown
