Nix was released by the Jaguars on Monday, Ryan O'Halloran of The Florida Times-Union reports.

EDGE Analysis

Nix was signed to Jacksonville's practice squad last October but didn't make an appearance for his hometown Jaguars last season. A third-round pick in 2014, the Notre Dame product has been on four teams already and will aim to land with a fifth ahead of training camp.

Nix signed a reserve/futures contract with the Jaguars on Wednesday, Hays Carlyon of 1010 AM Jacksonville reports.

EDGE Analysis

Nix, a former Notre Dame standout and third-round pick by the Texans in 2014, has already bounced around between four organizations in his brief career, but has just four career games (all with the Giants in 2015) on his ledger. He was a member of the Jaguars' practice squad from Oct. 25 onward, but the team never added him onto the 53-man roster. Nix is set to attend training camp with the Jaguars, but he'll likely face an uphill battle in making the club in 2017.

Nix was waived by the Giants on Saturday, Josina Anderson of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

Nix hoped to add some depth to the defensive line. He was competing with Montori Hughes and Jay Bromley for a backup role at defensive tackle. The Notre Dame product recorded four tackles in as many preseason games with the team.

Nix was waived by the Giants on Saturday, Ebenezer Samuel of the New York Daily News reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Giants waved Nix in order to make room for defensive back Tramain Jacobs, who was promoted from the practice squad after Leon McFadden was officially ruled out for Sunday's game. Nix never recorded a snap with the Giants in 2015 and will now be subject to the NFL's waiver system. He could opt to rejoin the team at another point in the season if he passes through waivers unclaimed.

Nix failed his physical with the Giants and will go back to the waiver system, ESPN's Field Yates reports.

EDGE Analysis

A third-round pick in the 2014 NFL Draft, Nix was released by the Texans last week. His career already appears to be on the ropes.

Nix was claimed off of waivers by the Giants on Sunday, the team's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Nix was waived by the Texans on Friday, after spending all of last season on Houston's injured-reserve. The former third-round draft pick has yet to play in an NFL game. Nix offers the Giants depth at defensive tackle, becoming the fifth defensive tackle on the active roster. The Giants released tackle Kenrick Ellis and cornerback Mike Harris to make room for both Nix and cornerback Asa Jackson who were both signed Sunday.

Nix was released by the Texans on Friday, ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

A 2014 third-round draft pick, Nix missed most of his rookie season with a knee injury, then apparently failed to impress during training camp. Rookie sixth-round selection Christian Covington will serve as Vince Wilfork's backup at nose tackle. As a recent third-round pick, Nix should draw some interest around the league.

Nix (knee) was placed on injured reserve on Wednesday, the Houston Chronicle reports. Nix, a rookie third-rounder from Notre Dame, was inactive for the Texans' first three games after undergoing a knee scope before training camp. Following that procedure, Nix is still striving toward 100 percent health, so the Texans opted for more immediate help by placing him on IR and signing veteran nose tackle Ryan Pickett on Wednesday.

Nix is expected to make his preseason debut this week against Denver, CSN Houston reports. Nix, a rookie nose tackle drafted in the third round, underwent knee surgery before training camp. Head coach Bill O'Brien said Nix has a lot of catching up to do.

Nix was activated off the Texans' PUP list on Tuesday. The knee injury has grounded Nix's professional career to this point, but the Texans aren't closing the door on him being a key part of their defensive line rotation as a rookie. Any chances he may have had at winning the starting nose tackle job, however, may have been compromised due to his extended absence.
