Rest-of-Season Projections
Officially retires
Dent has retired from playing and joined the Houston coaching staff.
ANALYSIS
Dent played six NFL seasons, three with the Falcons and three with the Texans, recording 203 tackles and three passes defensed across 90 games. He hasn't played since 2016 and was unlikely to get another opportunity with a club in 2019. He'll now operate as a defensive assistant coach for the Texans.
