The 28-year-old signed with the Texans as an undrafted free agent following the 2011 NFL lockout. Jean spent his first season in Houston on the injured reserve due to a shoulder injury he suffered in the pre-season. He was later picked up by the Minnesota Vikings in 2014.

Bombers defensive lineman Cameron Henderson has also announced his retirement.
