    He was released by the Dolphins along w/ James McKnight. Do you think the Texans would be interested?

    oh, I didn't realize he was that young when the cowboys won their championships...

    I'm not sure the texans would spend big money on someone they know won't be around when its time to battle for a championship...

    Why was he cut from the dolphins.. if he is a pro bowler I assume he was making too much money?
