| Houston, TX (Sportsbooks) - The Houston Texans made a number of moves Monday, among them bringing tight end Owen Daniels off the physically unable to perform list. Daniels passed his physical and is now able to participate in practice and games. He suffered a torn ACL in his right knee in the middle of last season and was sidelined for the rest of the year. "He took about 15 plays in practice, got to push ground a little bit, looked good," said Texans head coach Gary Kubiak. "That's a first step, probably |

HOUSTON (AP) - The Houston Texans have released cornerback Fred Bennett, receiver London Crawford and defensive end Pannel Egboh. Coach Gary Kubiak announced the moves on Sunday, the day after the Texans' 23-7 preseason win over Dallas. The 6-foot-1 Bennett was drafted by Houston in the fourth round in 2007. He played in 40 games and intercepted five passes in three seasons. The Texans have drafted four cornerbacks in the past two drafts. This year's top pick, Kareem Jackson, is taking the starting r |

The defense got run over, too. ``We're not ready for prime time yet,'' Phillips said. ``If the players aren't ready to play for the first regular-season |

HOUSTON (AP) - Houston Texans owner Bob McNair wants to see the NFL expand its regular season schedule from 16 to 18 games. Talks on expanding the season gained momentum at the owners' meeting in Atlanta on Wednesday, though the owners held off on voting for a specific proposal that could be presented to the players union. McNair says moving to an 18-game regular season ``makes sense,'' while acknowledging that several issues still have to be worked out. ``I think we can figure out a way to make it w |

HOUSTON (AP) - Houston Texans tight end Owen Daniels cut sharply, caught a short pass and sprinted 20 yards down the middle of an empty practice field.

Daniels tore his right anterior cruciate ligament midway through last season and underwent surgery last November. He visited Dr. James Andrews on Wednesday |

HOUSTON (AP) - It's become a running joke at Houston Texans' training camp: Who will be the next linebacker to go down with an injury? With the start of the regular season less than three weeks away, coach Gary Kubiak isn't doing much laughing. The Texans need to find a replacement for Brian Cushing, who's suspended for the first four games for testing positive for a banned substance. The two players pegged as front-runners to take his spot - Xavier Adibi and Danny Clark - have been hurt during trainin |

HOUSTON (AP) - Houston Texans rookie kick returner Trindon Holliday is gone for the season. Coach Gary Kubiak says Holliday will have surgery Wednesday on his broken left thumb. Holliday had been wearing a cast on the thumb in recent practices. Holliday fumbled a punt and mishandled a kickoff return in the Texans' 38-20 loss to New Orleans on Saturday. Kubiak blamed Holliday's miscues on his injured thumb. The 5-foot-5 Holliday was a sixth-round pick out of LSU. He is the reigning NCAA champion in th |
