Swinton, who played at Dallas and Detroit before coming to Houston, also led the team in kickoff returns (30.9-yard average) and punt returns (12.3).
As a second-year receiver, Thomas is a candidate for the practice squad again.
The Texans also waived receiver Donovan Morgan, quarterbacks B.J. Symons and Preston Parsons, running back Adam Matthews, guards Chad Beasley and Brandon Evans, offensive tackle Tim Brown, tight end Aaron Halterman, defensive linemen Jason Davis and Alfred Malone, cornerbacks Chris McKenzie, Jerron Wishom and Jon Pendergrass, safety Jammal Lord, kicker Chris Snyder, punter Cody Scates and linebackers Kenneth Pettway, Frank Chamberlain, Zeke Moreno and Anthony Dunn.
Once the 53-man roster is established, the Texans can sign players to the eight-man practice squad. The Texans also will be looking at candidates for the regular roster and practice squad who have been waived by other teams.
For example, former New England quarterback Rohan Davey, who played at LSU, is getting a tryout today, even though the Texans don't need another player at his position.
