Texans Acquire Ryan Izzo From Patriots
4 years agoThe Houston Texans are acquiring tight end Ryan Izzo from the New England Patriots on Thursday in exchange for a seventh-round pick in 2022, according to a source. The Patriots are dealing from a position of strength now that they signed Jonnu Smith and Hunter Henry in free agency this week. In addition to Smith and Henry, the Patriots have Devin Asiasi, Dalton Keene and Matt LaCosse at the position. Izzo, 25, has just 19 receptions on 29 targets for 313 yards and one touchdown in 18 games (16 starts) in his two seasons in New England after he was a seventh-round pick out of Florida State in 2018. He'll join a tight end group in Houston that includes Darren Fells, Pharaoh Brown, Jordan Akins, Kahale Warring and Paul Quessenberry.
