Former Patriots linebacker Roosevelt Colvin had a meeting with the Houston Texans recently, according to reports out of ESPN.com. The former Patriots player was released due to some injury issues that kept him sidelined for most of last season, but Colvin hopes to play again elsewhere. The Texans are putting Colvin through all the normal tests and physicals that any player undergoes. While there are definitely concerns about injuries to Colvin, he is only 30 years old. The Texans are interested in adding someone with Colvin’s pass rush ability, provided he can still get it done.
The Pats managed to avoid making many headlines today. It seems these guys can’t buy a break this offseason. They have endured all manner of horrible news stories as it pertains to Spygate and many other scandals. In the end, nothing seems to have stuck, and the Patriots have moved on. They kept their noses to the grindstone and their heads held high the whole time, and now it seems the team can finally move forward. Here’s to wishing Colvin all the best of luck in his new career, and the Pats the best of luck in their new season.
