Summary

The Houston Texans may trade wide receiver Kayshon Boutte before the November 10 deadline. Currently at 2-5, the Texans need to assess their roster after facing the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 9. ESPN suggests the Atlanta Falcons could be interested in Boutte, strengthening their efforts in the NFC South. Boutte has underperformed with the Texans, averaging about three catches and 30 yards per game since joining the team from the Patriots this season.
