[superbowlbound]

From Yahoo!:

The Houston Texans are auditioning former Arizona Cardinals running back Alphonso Smith(notes) today, according to a league source with knowledgeof the situation.

The Texans are also expected to work out several linebackers today after the season-ending torn Achilles tendon suffered by middle linebacker DeMeco Ryans(notes).

Smith started nine games at the University of Kentucky, rushing for 974 career yards and eight touchdowns.

He aso had 28 tackles, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery on special teams and caught 30 passes for 322 yards and two touchdowns.

Plus, he returned 15 kickoffs for a 22.4 average.

Does this mean we can expect a Slaton trade by the 3pm deadline? fingers crossed!
