The Texans waived Tomlinson on Tuesday, Jonathan M. Alexander of the Houston Chronicle reports. Tomlinson started in seven of the Texans' first eight games of the regular season, but he was a healthy inactive for the last two games. Assuming he clears waivers, the 2015 first-rounder will look to catch on with a team in need of depth on the offensive line.

Tomlinson is in line to sign a one-year, $4.25 million contract with the Texans, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports. Tomlinson's signing coincides with Houston's decision to trade Kenyon Green to Philadelphia, positioning the 33-year-old for a realistic chance to start at guard for his new team. The veteran lineman started all 17 regular-season games for the Seahawks in 2024.
