HOUSTON (AP) -- The Houston Texans signed free agent running back Chris Brown on Thursday.
Brown appeared in 12 games last season for the Tennessee Titans and finished with 462 yards rushing and five touchdowns. He was taken by the Titans in the third round of the 2003 draft and ran for 2,757 yards and 16 TDs in five seasons with Tennessee.
He'll join Ahman Green at running back with the Texans and his signing could mean the end of Ron Dayne's tenure in Houston. Green is expected to be healthy this season after missing nine games in 2007 and finishing with 70 carries for 260 yards.
I would Like to see a big goal line runner brought in for the tough 3rd and shorts. I like Evans as well, but when he comes in you KNOW it's a power run, where I think with Dayne, you have a little more flexibility.
HOWEVER, this is all based on if the Patriots do not sign Owen Schmit FB form WVU, the guy is a beast, has speed and can catch, the man is a beast, 12 broken facemasks during college, and has the heart I want to see on the Pats as a FB.
