"Wednesday was a busy day for the Texans. Receiver Derrick Mason, acquired from the New York Jets for a conditional seventh-round draft choice, got a crash course in his new offense.

Receiver Trindon Holliday was re-signed to return kickoffs and punts against Baltimore so free safety Danieal Manning and receiver Jacoby Jones can focus on their positions.

Receiver David Anderson and running back Chris Ogbonnaya were placed on waivers. Ogbonnaya could be added to the practice squad if he clears waivers."
