Texans Cut Four, Likely to Release Jerome Mathis after Arrest

 
The Houston Texans have cut centers Mike Flanagan and Drew Hodgon, tight end Jeb Putzier, and linebacker Shawn Barber.   In addition, they are not expected to tender restricted free agent Jerome Mathis.  He was recently arrested for attacking his pregnant girlfriend. Mathis is a talented return man with good speed, but his temper is apparently a real problem and most teams should be quite disturbed by his behavior. Putzier had a couple of decent seasons in Denver, but his two years in Houston were a complete disappointment.  Of course, the emergence of Owen Daniels might have had something to do with that. Fantasy Football Impact: None.   On the cutting edge year round at RealFootball365.com . (link)
