After being released by the Texans, WR Noah Brown found a new home on the active roster with the Washington Commanders. Brown has had over 550 yards receiving in each of the last two seasons with the Cowboys and Texans.
Jeremy Fowler of ESPN: WR Noah Brown signing with Commanders. Will join active roster.

Brown missed most of Texans camp due to injury including both a lower-body injury then a shoulder injury. Not being able to compete on the loaded Texans WR group led to Brown's release.
