However there is still a chance that Clowney will be on the opening day roster, this move just gives the Texans some options moving forward.

Clowney had microfracture surgery on that right knee December. 8 and has been rehabbing since.

Many within the Texans have said they expect Clowney to see playing time by the season opener. The move was anticipated and Clowney was joined on the list by inside linebacker Akeem Dent, who is battling back from an ankle injury.

The Texans start training camp Saturday. Quessenberry is recovering from cancer treatment over the a year ago plus.

Being placed on the Active/PUP list before training camp begins allows Clowney to return to practice when he is medically cleared.
