Brooks was released by the Texans on Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

Brooks signed a one-year deal with the Texans in March, but the team has decided to move on from him ahead of the 2022 season. The safety played in 11 games with the Texans last year, making 21 tackles and deflecting a pass. The veteran will likely get picked up by another squad in need of depth in their secondary.
