Today’s minor moves: Baltimore Ravens Claimed on waivers (from Texans): WR Steven Sims Carolina Panthers Waived: DE Jonathan Harris Chicago Bears Placed on IR: LT Braxton Jones Cincinnati Bengals Signed to active roster: DE Isaiah Thomas Waived: QB Logan Woodside Detroit Lions Waived: DE Chris Smith Green Bay Packers Promoted: S Omar Brown Houston Texans […]

The trade deadline passed quite a while ago, but the Ravens and Texans still managed to swap wideouts on Monday.

Two can play the "claim a wideout off waivers from the team they're playing this week" game, Texans. Sims is more of a punt returner than anything, but the Ravens have struggled in that area as Desmond King put a ball on the ground on Saturday. The rare Festivus waiver claim trade is to be celebrated.

WR was waived by Baltimore last week Trading places: The Texans claimed former Ravens WR Diontae Johnson on waivers three days after the Ravens claimed former Texans WR/punt returner Steven Sims on waivers. (ESPN - Adam Schefter) FF Today's Take: The Texans catch a big break in acquiring Johnson after losing Tank Dell to a season-ending knee injury in Week 16. There is almost no chance Johnson will be able to contribute on such short notice in Week 17 against his former team, but he could be an impact player for them at the start of the NFL Playoffs next month.

The Texans signed veteran tight end Irv Smith Jr. from the practice squad to the active roster Friday, the team announced.
