Ande Davis Hopes To Be A Start For Houston

Oct 24, 2014 12:06 AM

Texans wide receiver Andre Davis hopes to earn more offensive attention this season. "I want to continue to go out there and help the team in any way I can. Andre (Johnson) and Kevin (Walter) are the starters, and they have played great for us the last three years that I have been here," Davis said. "I want to go out there and push those guys. I think the competition that we have within the wide receiving corps continues to push everybody and makes us play at an even higher level. We all understand that we have different skill sets and we accept the roles that we are in, but we are never satisfied with that. We are always going to push Andre and Kevin for those starting roles. I think we all have dreams for being starters in this league." Davis caught thirteen passes for 213 yards last season.

Houston Officially Signs Grossman

Nov 9, 2014 4:34 AM

The Texans have officially added quarterback Rex Grossman to their roster. "I have been a free agent now for a couple of months," Grossman said. "There have been some teams that I almost went to, but it didn't happen. A couple of days ago, actually, I got a call from my agent (Drew Rosenhaus) that Houston was interested and that coach (Gary) Kubiak would be calling. "I didn't expect anything for a couple of days. I went home to Indianapolis and on my flight, I guess, the whole deal got done. As soon as I landed in Indianapolis, I was a Houston Texan." The Texans already have Matt Schaub and Dan Orlovsky at quarterback. "I'm going to be a good soldier, but at the same time, I am going to compete and do the best I can," Grossman said. "They've got their starter and they brought in Orlovsky. I am just going to get in the mix and see where I fit in."
