Texans to part ways with Brian Hoyer


Texans quarterback Brian Hoyer will soon need to find a new job. With Houston signing Brock Osweiler to a four-year, $72 million deal and Brandon Weeden fully entrenched as the backup, Hoyer is now expendable.



Aside from the Broncos, there are a number of teams who are in the market for a quarterback, so there's no doubt Hoyer will land a gig somewhere either as a starter or backup.

Hoyer came into the league as an undrafted free agent in 2009 and was the Patriots' backup quarterback until 2012, when he bounced from the Pittsburgh Steelers to the Arizona Cardinals. Hoyer then had a two-year run in Cleveland and called Houston home this past season.
