The Houston Texans have added quarterback Brett Rypien to their roster as of Saturday. This decision follows the placement of Graham Mertz on season-ending injured reserve, which led the Texans to look for added depth at the quarterback position.

Previously with the Cincinnati Bengals, Rypien appeared in one regular-season game in 2025, where he took three offensive snaps. With his addition, he will act as a backup option behind starters C.J. Stroud and Davis Mills. Details regarding the specifics of Rypien's contract have not been released.
