The Houston Texans signed veteran long snapper Blake Ferguson on Wednesday.

The other long snapper on the current 90-man roster is undrafted rookie Austin Brinkman.

The Miami Dolphins selected Ferguson in the sixth round of the 2020 NFL Draft out of LSU. Ferguson, 28, played in five games last season before being placed on the non-football injury list.

The Dolphins released him in May.

Ferguson appeared in all 67 of Miami’s games from 2020-23 and has a fumble recovery and eight career tackles.

His brother, Reid Ferguson, is entering his ninth season as the long snapper of the Buffalo Bills.

The Texans waived tight end Tre’ McKitty, 26, in a corresponding move. The Los Angeles Chargers drafted him in the third round in 2021.
