New Texans GM Nick Caserio continues to wheel and deal. Houston has agreed to a trade to acquire cornerback Ka’dar Hollman from the Packers, a source told veteran NFL reporter Aaron Wilson (Twitter link).
Caserio has made several trades recently, and this isn’t even his first one with Green Bay. The two teams recently worked out a deal for receiver Randall Cobb at the behest of Aaron Rodgers. Caserio just traded corner Keion Crossen to the Giants last week, so Hollman can essentially be seen as a replacement in the secondary. There is no word on compensation yet, but in all likelihood the Texans are sending back a late-round pick.
The Packers drafted Hollman in the sixth round out of Toledo in 2019. He barely saw the field as a rookie but took on a real role this past season. He appeared in 14 games for Green Bay and even started one.
Hollman ended up playing a bit over 10 percent of the defensive snaps, finishing with 10 tackles and three passes defended. He was also a contributor on special teams. Caserio is certainly being aggressive if nothing else as he continues to completely remake Houston’s roster.
