HOUSTON (AP) -Houston Texans running back Ron Dayne was inactive for Sunday's opener against the Philadelphia Eagles. Dayne, signed Monday by the Texans, had been released by Denver after missing three of four preseason games with turf toe. The 1999 Heisman Trophy winner was listed third on the Texans depth chart this week. Rookie running back Chris Taylor was signed from the practice squad and linebacker Roy Manning was released to make room for Taylor on the roster.Copyright © 2005 The Associate |

HOUSTON (AP) -Gary Kubiak had just one losing season in his nine-year playing career, and as an assistant coach in Denver he hasn't seen one since 1999. The Houston Texans have never had a winning record, much less reached the .500 mark. So what does the perennial winner expect from a team that plummeted to 2-14 last season? ``I just want to see us get better every time out,'' he said. ``I want to see us keep preparing the way we're preparing. I know there'll be some good times and there'll be some t |

In the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina's destruction a year ago, along came Bush, Southern California's do-it-all-quickly tailback who seemed to score a touchdown for the Trojans every time he got his hands on the football. When the Houston Texans surprisingly decided to draft defensive end Mario Williams with the No. 1 overall pick, Bush fell to the Saints - like an angel from above. ``The fans were excited when he was available,'' said Saints first-year coach Sean Payton. ``He brought a l |

HOUSTON (AP) -The Houston Texans figured out a way to field a Heisman Trophy running back after all. And while Ron Dayne doesn't exactly command the hype of say, Reggie Bush, he's excited that his next chance in the NFL means a reunion with Gary Kubiak, Dayne's offensive coordinator when the two were in Denver. Of course, now that Kubiak is running the show in Houston, their friendly relationship might be a little different. ``He's down to earth. Real calm and a great guy,'' Dayne said Tuesday, the f |

HOUSTON (AP) -The Houston Texans are expected to sign free agent running back Ron Dayne on Monday, a person close to the negotiations told The Associated Press on Sunday night. The person asked not to be identified because the deal had not been finalized. Dayne, the 1999 Heisman Trophy winner, was cut by the Denver Broncos on Saturday after entering training camp as the starting tailback. The move isn't surprising, considering the Texans placed Domanick Davis on injured reserve on Saturday and were l |

HOUSTON (AP) -The Houston Texans placed running back Domanick Davis on injured reserve Saturday, ending his 2006 season. Davis, Houston's top rusher for the last three seasons, has been out for a month with a bone bruise that is causing soreness in his knee. Texans coach Gary Kubiak decided that putting him on injured reserve would be the right thing for the team, but isn't happy about the decision. ``He's done everything he can do,'' Kubiak said. ``It's been disappointing for him and disappointing f |

HOUSTON (AP) -Those hoping to get another peek at David Carr and most other Houston Texans starters before the regular season won't get it Thursday night. Texans coach Gary Kubiak said most of his starters will not play against Tampa Bay, the last preseason outing for both teams. Not all starters will sit out though, with several rookies, including No. 1 pick Mario Williams and second-round choice DeMeco Ryans expected to see some work. ``There's a group of guys that I know will be here playing for u |

HOUSTON (AP) -Domanick Davis doesn't know when his injured left knee will be healthy enough for him to return to the field. The running back hopes the Houston Texans will be patient regardless of how long it takes. Davis, Houston's top rusher for the past three seasons, has been out for a month with a bone bruise that is causing soreness in his knee. He said it has been frustrating and surprising that the injury has kept him out this long. ``It's getting to the point where it's just draining me,'' he |
