Navas was invited to go on trial with the Houston Dynamo, when preseason training started in early February. After having a successful trial for the first team, he became the second home grown player to be promoted from the Dynamo's developmental academy (after Houston Dynamo goalkeeper Tyler Deric), when he signed a professional development contract with Houston on March 5, 2010.

He made his professional debut on April 17, 2010, in a game against Chivas USA.[1]

Navas was waived by Houston on November 23, 2011.[2]

At age 14, Navas participated at a United States Under-15 camp.[3] At age 18, he made his national team debut with the under-20 team on March 28, 2010, at the 2010 Dallas Cup.[3]
