    Heard over the grapevine that former SFA QB will be signed by the Texans around the 27th.
    He was a backup in Dallas and Miami. Supposedly he's 100%, but we shall see.

    My mistake J. Quinn played college ball in Tennessee.

    How about bringing back Warren Moon?

    It's not really a rumor that Troy Aikman wants to come back to the NFL next year. He's said as much. He didn't want to be out of football this season.

    I seriously doubt that the Texans would give him a look, though.

    As for Mike Quinn, if the Texans do sign him, he's just a training camp body. They've got a lot of spots to fill. I know nobody in the Texans organization is looking at him as the franchise QB. Probably not even looking at him as the veteran starter to take the hits while the o-line gels and the QB of the future learns the NFL game.

    At best, he'd be the first season backup/third stringer. He might not even make it through camp.

    It's not as if there would be a whole lot of good players available to sign during the season. But they do need bodies to fill out the training camp roster.
