Charles James getting cut was pretty hard to watch, but serves as another great example of how brutal the NFL can be in terms of just trying to make a roster. Man did everything right and it literally just came down to a lack of size and bad timing, two things entirely out of his control. That's got to be the worst feeling in the world to know that you did everything to make the team and still got cut in the end because the timing just wasn't there.

Charles James honestly would be that analyst that would beat 80% of the ones on these sports networks today. Great personality, works harder than anyone else, and doesn't make excuses. I know the Texans got him back in 2016 but man, he deserves to be on T.V and on the field more. And as a Titans fan, thanks for letting us hire Vrabel.

I felt bad for Kourtnei Brown, dude gets a sack and Vrabel pretty much blows him off...took the excitement right outta him...I get that Covington pushed the qb outta the pocket but damn

2:14 You know, coming back to this after what Carli Lloyd grilled the 2023 USWST after their Group Stages, you can tell how much the moment meant to her. That and if the Texans needed an emergency kicker, you could have found someone who handled pressure well. Now look at the soccer team 8 years later. No energy, no determination, no drive. What a difference people like Carli make.

Can you keep uploading hard knocks? These are awesome

This season had pbly the most likable roster margin guys. They made this season great and also this final ep incredibly tough to watch.

Watching this after they traded d hop makes you wonder all the other bad choices O’Brien made

Respect to jj watt for stayin late after practice and signing all those fans stuff. That wuz trill af. 95% of players in the leauge wouldn't do that

Vrabel shoulda been the HC here. His attitude, toughness and general demeanor brings out the fight in all of them

Really not sure how much more Kourtnei brown could have done in the preseason games to be honest. I thought he would have at least made practice squad after his showing

Coach Brian says "I screwed up, telle to go screw myself." 😆 and starts doing pushups

BoB deserves a spot back in the NFL. just not as a GM. he's a good, fair leader

Please put the browns hard knocks up next

pleaaaaassseeeee do one more season?

For as bad of a GM as BOB was he was a pretty damn good coach and before the blowup he was loved by players

I respect the way the head coach treats his players to give them advice, but as far as his coaching skills are concerned he just makes some bad trades snd even worse plays. The players know how to read the field better than he does, and they get it done. He needs to step down as coach if the Texans want a ring.

I always like to look up the guys they cut, most times they end up on a roster somewhere. Kourtnei Brown stood out to me the most though, cut 7 times! But an awesome ending for him is that he made the Bucs roster and got to record 1 tackle. It’s one tackle, sure, but I know that must have meant the world to him, I hope he rides that single tackle in the NFL until the day he dies.

The nervousnous and anticipation.

Houston - so bill we've decided to cut you Bill - 😶

Great coach....only one to yell one brady keep his job to tell about ir

The way the coach told EZ he’s looking for someone better than him is messed up. He couldn’t find any better way to put it in words?

What’s worse seeing EZ get cut and carrying out his stuff in plastic bags or Kourtney Brown getting cut he played his ass off too that one looked personal

They explained why. He was extremely inconsistent. He'd have one huge highlight play in a game and 3 costly mistakes. That's perfectly fine in High School, even somewhat in college. In the NFL? That's a fast way to get cut from a roster. I feel for the guy but it was a given that he wasn't going to make the team because of his consistency issues.
