Second-year tight end Jordan Thomas has been placed on the injured list while the Texans have signed veteran tight end Logan Paulsen. 

Thomas suffered a rib injury in Thursday night's final preseason game against the Los Angeles Rams. 

Rookie tight end Kahale Warring has also dealt with lingering injuries throughout camp and was placed on the injured list to start the season. 

With depth and dependability needed at the position, the Texans bring in Paulsen, a 10-year veteran who was cut by the Atlanta Falcons over the weekend. 

Paulsen, who grabbed nine passes for 91 yards and a touchdown last season for the Falcons, has also played for Washington, Chicago and San Francisco. 

The Houston Chronicle's Aaron Wilson reported Monday the Texans are also bringing in linebacker Brandon Marshall for a workout Tuesday. Marshall was recently cut by the Oakland Raiders.
