Cast off by Houston
The Texans cut Ammendola from their practice squad Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Houston's decision to move on from Ammendola signals that the team fully anticipates top kicker Ka'imi Fairbairn (quadriceps) will make his return from injured reserve ahead of Sunday's game against the Titans. Ammendola reverted to the practice squad following the Texans' Week 14 loss to the Jets, after he had handled kicking duties in each of the past five contests. During his time as Houston's kicker, Ammendola converted six of nine field-goal attempts and 10 of 11 extra-point tries.

Works out for Lions
Ammendola was one of four kickers that the Lions brought in for a workout after Michael Badgley suffered a season-ending hamstring injury Thursday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Along with Ammendola, the Lions worked out Lucas Havrisik, Matthew McCrane and Andre Szmyt on Friday. Ammendola is the most accomplished kicker on that list, having made 24 of 35 career field-goal attempts, while the other three have combined for 23 made field goals in the NFL. Whichever kicker Detroit signs will compete in training camp against Jake Bates, who turned heads in the UFL this past season but has no NFL experience.
