Zierlein projected him as a sixth or seventh round pick.[48] Chris Burke of SI.com projected Mancz as a mid to late fifth round pick.[49]

Houston Texans

edit

Mancz signed with the Houston Texans on May 8, 2015, after going undrafted in the 2015 draft.[50][17] He played in the first three games of the 2015 season but was inactive for the next five games.[51][52][53] In late October, he suffered a knee injury that required surgery.[41][52][54] He was placed on season-ending injured reserve on November 3.[55][50] He was taken off injured reserve on February 8, 2016.[50]

With Martin returning from injury in 2017, Mancz began the season as the team's primary backup along the interior of the offensive line.[61] During the Week 1 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars on September 10, Mancz replaced starting left guard Xavier Su'a-Filo to begin the second half but was shifted to right guard after an injury to Jeff Allen.[62][61][63] Mancz then started the Week 2 game against the Cincinnati Bengals on September 14 at right guard. On September 18, Texans head coach Bill O'Brien stated that Mancz would remain the starting right guard even if Allen was healthy.[64] Mancz then started the Week 3 game against the New England Patriots on September 24.[63] However, he missed the Week 4 game against the Tennessee Titans on October 1 due to a knee injury.[65][63] On October 4, he returned to practice with a protective brace on his knee.[66] From Weeks 5 to 12, Mancz only appeared in two games; a non-starting role in both Week 8 and Week 10.[63] He then started the team's final five games of the season; the first three at right guard and the last two at center.[67][68] [69][70][71] Overall, Mancz played in 10 games, starting seven, in 2017.[1]

He also appeared in one playoff game.[1]

Mancz suffered an ankle injury during the 2019 preseason that caused him to miss the first two games of the regular season.[78] He started at right guard in Week 4 against the Carolina Panthers in place of the injured Zach Fulton, but suffered a concussion late in the game that caused him to miss the next five contests.[79][78] Mancz then returned to play in the Texans' final seven games of the season, all in a non-starting role.[80] Overall, he appeared in nine games, starting one, during the 2019 season. He also appeared in two playoff games.[1] During the offseason, he underwent arthroscopic surgery for his ankle injury from the 2019 preseason.[81]

On September 5, 2020, Mancz was released by the Texans and signed to the practice squad the next day.[82][83] He was elevated to the active roster on November 7, November 14, November 21, and January 2, 2021, for the team's Weeks 9, 10, 11, and 17 games against the Jaguars, Cleveland Browns, Patriots, and Titans, and reverted to the practice squad after each game.[84][85][86][87] Overall, he played in four games, starting none, during the 2020 season.[1] Mancz was released from the practice squad on January 7, 2021.[88]
