Xavier Adibi signed with the Texans on 7-16. He's a formidable linebacker from Virginia Tech. He plans on bringing a lot of energy to the defense.
The key to this year's success depends partially on the health of 3 key players. Last year Ahman Green, Andre Johnson, and Matt Schaub were on the field together for only 2 games. If they an stay healthy and on the field they would be a formidable force.
The Texans' offense is looking impressive with Ahman Green, Darius Walker, Chris Taylor., Chris Brown and Steve Slaton at running back. That should give them the depth they need and better running than last year where they ranked #22. Passing wasn't really a problem last year as they ranked #11 with Rosenfels and Schaub at the helm.
The Texans are hoping to keep key players healthy this tear and avoid some of the mistakes that caused turnovers last season. A healthy Texans team could be a force in the division.
The NFL is only allowing 80 players in training camps this year so the team will have to trim down soon. The NFL used to allow exemptions for NFL Europe players allowing up to 90 players to be carried into training camp. Since the NFL Europe folded that exemption no longer applies.
With fewer players in camp there will be more play time and potential injuries are a real possibility.
Mike Brisiel has gone from undrafted free agent in 2006 to starting guard in the 1st week of practice. Fred Weary is still injured but should be back in July so it will be a tough race for the starting spot.
The Houston Texans gear up for another exciting year of football. This could be the year that the Texans really turn it on.

Come watch it happen from great seats.
