Orlando Scandrick To Visit Texans

In moving their roster down to 53 players, the Eagles released Orlando Scandrick this week. While it is still possible the parties reunite, Mike Garafolo of NFL.com tweets the veteran cornerback will visit the Texans in the meantime.

Scandrick will trek to Houston on Monday. The Texans made major changes to their roster on Saturday, adding Laremy Tunsil, Kenny Stills, Carlos Hyde and Barkevious Mingo to it — while also trading away Jadeveon Clowney. The Texans’ cornerback situation also changed this offseason.

Houston lost Kareem Jackson, Kevin Johnson and Tyrann Mathieu and added Bradley Roby, Tashaun Gipson and Jahleel Addae. They drafted Lonnie Johnson Jr. and Xavier Crawford in the second and sixth rounds, respectively, and also made a depth trade in acquiring Keion Crossen from the Patriots.

Scandrick has logged 11 NFL seasons, spending much of that time as a slot corner. He played in 15 games for the Chiefs last season, starting seven.
