Houston Texans
On October 1, 2014, the Houston Texans signed Rolle off the Green Bay Packers' practice squad. He got his first and second interceptions on November 2, 2014 vs. the Philadelphia Eagles. Rolle kept his hot streak going by intercepting Titans backup quarterback Jake Locker's only pass attempt in Week 13. After the game, Rolle admitted he wasn't sure he would ever play defense for Houston, due to the fact he was signed for special teams. His start at nickel cornerback did not prove to be too big a task for Rolle, as he had 3 interceptions and 4 pass break-ups despite playing in only 6 games at that point in the 2014 season.
