Settle totaled 14 tackles and one sack last season with the Bills while plying on a career-high 380 defensive snaps. The veteran defensive tackle could play a larger role in a Texans defense that recently traded Maliek Collins to the 49ers.

Settle signed a two-year deal with the organization prior to the 2022 season after playing four seasons with the Commanders. He played in all but one game a season ago, but the athletic defensive lineman remains a situational player for the Bills, accounting for more than a 50% snap rate in only four games.

Settle is still just 24 years old and was widely hyped as one of this year's top under-the-radar free agents. Settle played 20% of the defensive snaps for Washington last season, but the Football Team just had so much talent up front that it was difficult to crack the rotation. Settle had five sacks in 2020 on 33% of the downs. It's an upside signing for the Bills.

Settle was credited with a limited practice Wednesday followed by a full one the day after. He'll provide depth on Washington's defensive line in Sunday's matchup with the Lions.
