    ILB Darryl Sharpton (quad/PUP) said he plans to practice next week. "I look forward to hitting some people." #Texans

    Aha, yes. Thank you. Hopefully he's back in shape soon so he can get out there on that field.

    If he has a good week of practice, we might be able to use him a little against the Bears.

    Proof of how good they are. Sharpton was headed towards starting this season and they haven't lost a thing w/o him and haven't been affected much w/o Cushing. Dobbins has done well. Sharpton is more depth and only helps.

    Ruud plus Sharpton are going to be very welcome additions to the ILB rotation. Nice to get that kind of boost halfway into the year.

    Exactly. At a time of year where it seems like the Texans are always having to bring the next man up, it's nice to get an addition back.....especially one with the potential of Daryl Sharpton. Here's to hoping that he can get back to his 2011 form, prior to that nasty torn quad he suffered. He was really moving fast towards becoming the starter, so I'm hoping that come playoff time, he'll be able to spell James and Dobbins, and keep them fresh. Ruud and Sharpton are going to be great depth guys.

    Now that I'm thinking about could you imagine how painful tearing your quad muscle would be? Especially for a big dude like Sharpton.
