Former New England Patriots linebacker Rosevelt Colvin paid a visit to the Houston Texans looking for work.

Colvin was released by the Patriots in September and was in Texas to meet with team officials and undergo a physical.

He spent five years with the Patriots and was part of a veteran linebacker corps that helped the team win two Super Bowls.

Head coach Gary Kubiak said he has coached against Colvin many times and thinks he is a fine player who could certainly help the Texans.

The biggest thing with Colvin is whether or not he is healthy. If he is, expect the Texans to sign him.
