HOUSTON -- Rosevelt Colvin says he's fine wherever the Houston Texans want him to play. As long as he gets to rush the passer.
Colvin was mostly a linebacker when he was a two-time Super Bowl winner with the New England Patriots. He's likely to be used as a situational pass rusher at defensive end in his first season with the Texans.
Rosevelt Colvin watched Tuesday's Texans practice from the sideline.
"I would love to be going forward," he said. "A lot of the guys up there in New England used to say all the time when I'd drop back in coverage, 'Keep that guy going forward."'
The Texans want to improve their pass rush and take some pressure off the double teams Mario Williams will likely draw after getting 14 sacks last season.
Colvin has 52 1/2 sacks in nine seasons in New England and Chicago. He was released by the Patriots in February after missing the last five regular season games and the playoffs with a foot injury.
He's healthy now and coach Gary Kubiak is looking forward to seeing how quickly Colvin learns Houston's 4-3 scheme. At 6-foot-3 and 250 pounds, Colvin's quite a bit smaller than the rest of the defensive line.
