Texans Cut Keith Mumphrey, Max Bullough From Roster

HOUSTON TX — The Houston Texans have parted ways with third-year wide receiver Keith Mumphrey after allegations arose that he’d allegedly sexually assaulted a woman while a student at Michigan State University in 2015.

Mumphrey played mostly on special teams, was cut along with linebacker and fellow special teams player Max Bullough, who was facing a four game suspension for violating the NFL’s police for using performance enhancing drugs.
