Anderson was signed by the Broncos just prior to training camp after a five- year stint with the Houston Texans in which the Colorado State product compiled 81 receptions and three touchdowns. His best season came in 2009, when he started eight games and caught 38 passes for 370 yards. Rosario had spent the past four seasons playing under current Denver head |

| ears. It had become commonplace for insiders to anoint the Colts as the division front-runners. With the same regularity, many have made claims in recent years that one team was the likely candidate to finally topple Peyton Manning and company - the Houston Texans. Following Gary Kubiak's inaugural season as head coach in 2006, the Texans have been annually expected to make the jump from non-playoff team to contender, yet have fallen short of the mark year-after-year. Despite those shortcomings, experts and f |

HOUSTON (AP) - Houston Texans coach Gary Kubiak is optimistic Arian Foster will be ready for the regular-season opener after the running back aggravated a hamstring injury in Saturday's preseason victory over San Francisco. Foster, the NFL's leading rusher in 2010, left the field in the first quarter of Houston's 30-7 victory, favoring the left hamstring that he strained in one of the first workouts of training camp. Kubiak said Sunday that head athletic trainer Geoff Kaplan offered a ``very positive'' o |

Meanwhile, fans did not appear to be scared away from Saturday's 49ers game against the Houston Texans at Candlestick, which ended in a 30-7 Houston victory. Alex Enriquez, 24, of Santa Rosa chalked up some of the violence at last week's game to the charged atmosphere that the rivalry between the team and the cross-town Oakland Raiders generates.

HOUSTON (AP) - The Houston Texans are counting on a defensive lineman making the switch to a new position in coordinator Wade Phillips' new 3-4 scheme. Just like with Mario Williams. Connor Barwin is moving to outside linebacker. He made an impact as a rookie defensive end for the Texans, then had last season cut short by injury. Barwin is making the same - albeit, much less publicized - position switch on the opposite side of the Texans' defensive line. Barwin said the transition hasn't been diffi |

HOUSTON (AP) - Receiver Jacoby Jones has been a role player on offense and a key contributor to special teams since the Houston Texans drafted him in the third round out of tiny Lane College in 2007. The Texans are expecting Jones to do even more. Houston signed the free agent to a three-year deal worth more than $10 million, hoping he can help boost an already potent offense better known for Andre Johnson, Matt Schaub and Arian Foster. Jones shakes his head thinking about how much he's matured in his |

| (MySportsbook) - Though Houston Texans head coach Gary Kubiak went into last year with what many considered "playoffs or bust" job security, he was still brought back for a sixth season despite his team regressing from a franchise- record nine wins in 2009 to only six a season later. Come this time in 2012, it's highly unlikely the Texans' season preview has the same intro theme. The Texans were the chic emerging powerhouse pick of the AFC South last August and subsequently opened September in appropriate |
