    That is something we haven't seen much of as Texan fans. Give him a shot at kick off and putt returns.

    Don't worry, we don't have the special teams coverage for that to ever happen.

    I'm excited about him as a viable RB2, anything in the return game is extra.

    wonder if this preclude us from taking gurley in the 1st, or another RB relatively early

    I can't believe his stats were not better. Seems like I always saw him performing well. If nothing else, he'll be the kick returner. I think he could spell the end for Kershaw Martin, actually. Especially if we take a receiver early.

    So he's our Darrin Sproles? I'm all for big play guys. The Texans are loading up and it's nice to see.

    Yes, an oft-injured, rarely used backup means there's no chance for Gurley :p

    Maybe they can trade off being injured?
