Saw Benson's mug shot in your post... not a pretty picture, but (in my non-professional opinion) I don't think any of these charges will stick to Benson.



Me neither, which is why I wrote of any mention of Benson and the Texans as a rumor at this point.

It actually would not surprise me either if the Texans had some informal conversations with Shaun Alexander's agent -- just speculation here. The Texans have not been talked about in conjunction with Kevin Jones since his release, but I don't think Jones fits the same profile of what they'd be looking for like they might find in either Benson or Alexander.

Just something to keep an eye on here for now. No need for any of these guys to sign this far out from the start of camp. I would expect the music to stop by around the first of August though with all three of these guys under some sort of NFL contract.

I didn't want to start a new thread but wanted to ask the obvious question, who will the Texans pick up? Kubiak is on record yesterday saying they will pick up a RB for practice reps. Of course John McClain asked about Benson and if he was being considered. Kubiak stared at him for a moment and then said "No". That should answer that one.

Now who do you think it will be?
