Posey has attended OTAs while only being able to watch from the sidelines. “We’re making a decision on him at the end of camp because of the PUP and those type of things,” Texans coach Gary Kubiak said. “He’s doing everything he can. He’s going to come back and he’s going to play for us next year. How early is the question.” |
