The Houston Texans are set to release veteran safety Jimmie Ward on Monday, as reported by Adam Schefter. Ward, who spent most of the season on the PUP list and did not play in 2025, will help the team save $750,000 in cap space. Drafted 30th overall in 2014, Ward had a notable career, including a recent tenure with the Texans where he recorded 45 tackles and two interceptions in 2024. His release marks the end of a significant chapter in his professional journey.
