Ballentine (knee) reached an injury settlement with the Texans on Friday and is now a free agent.

EDGE Analysis

Ballentine essentially missed the entirety of training camp with the injury, and has battled injuries throughout the last few seasons. The specifics of the injury are still murky, so it's unknown if the 24-year-old is likely to earn a chance elsewhere.

EDGE Analysis

Given his familiarity with the team, it makes sense that Houston opted to revert him to IR.

Ballentine (groin) has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

EDGE Analysis

Ballentine remains in recovery from a devastating knee injury suffered last season, and while a setback hasn't been reported, he hasn't progressed as quickly as expected. He now has to sit for the first six weeks of 2016, though, which should allow him ample time to get back into game shape.
