D'Aundre Holmes Wilfork, son of Texans defensive tackle Vince Wilfork, faces a felony drug charge after he was arrested in Friendswood on Dec. 21, according to Galveston County records.

Wilfork, 19, was on the roster in 2016 for University of Houston, although he did not dress for any games, and previously played for the Friendswood High School Mustangs.

Wilfork has now been dismissed from the UH football program, university officials said in a statement on Tuesday. "We are aware of the situation and D'Aundre is no longer a part of the Houston Football program," the statement reads.

Wilfork allegedly had 381 grams of codeine in his possession when he was arrested just after midnight on Dec. 21. The arrest occurred after a traffic stop at 2495 S. Friendswood Drive, according to Friendswood police records.
