The Facts: The Texans have claimed Coates, a source tells ESPN.com's Jeremy Fowler.

Diehards Line: Coates, who was released by the Browns on Thursday, had to clear waivers before he could become a free agent. The Texans jumped in before that happened. While nobody should be looking to hype this move, none of us were looking to hype Will Fuller last year, either. Deshaun Watson had other ideas. We'll see if Coates' speed makes him more viable in Houston than he was in Cleveland.
