2002 Houston Expansion Draft

The new Houston Texans, set to begin play in 2002, can select 30 to 42 players and are required to use $27.02M (38% of the $71.1M cap) in the draft. Restricted Free Agents (RFAs) do not count toward either.

Rules and Eligibility Requirements
  • Of the five players, each of the 31 clubs can expose only one who was placed on injured reserve after the start of the 2001 season and only one who has 10 or more years of free agency experience.
  • Players must not be a punter or a kicker.
  • Teams have the option to remove one player from the list after the first player is taken and can remove the last two after a second player is taken. This is not mandatory and the teams can allow more players to be taken off their roster.
