http://www.rotoworld.com/player/nfl/5820/ricky-sappSapp will provide linebacker depth with Darryl Sharpton (foot) and Joe Mays (knee) dealing with injuries.
The Texans waived RB Ray Graham in a corresponding move to clear a spot on the active roster. Nov 15 - 4:50 PM
Wow! Sharpton's hurt! Now who'd thought that might happen?
When the Eagles drafted Sapp he was considered a first round talent who was coming off a major leg injury (I forget what kind), which is why we could get him so late in the draft. The guy has talent, its just a shame it seems he hasnt shaken off his injury.
So they traded Reed for Sapp and threw in $6M to sweeten the pot. Sounds about par for the course this season.
I doubt McNair enjoys being the laughingstock of the NFL.
I'm more worried about the fact this is winning time for Kubiak...when the playoffs are out of reach. It ruins a high draft pick and probably keeps him around for more season(s) of fail.
http://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/5605904Farrah Franklin, who was a part of the R&B group Destiny's Child, had been out drinking with NFL players Daquan Bowers and Ricky Sapp when the three returned to Sapp's house early Sunday.
The two men told police the 33-year-old was "yelling, slamming doors and refused to stop when asked," so they called the police. When law enforcement arrived, they found Franklin lying in a neighbor's yard. She told them she "did not have anywhere else to go and was planning on sleeping in the woods."...

I don't know if this is out there yet, but the #Texans have signed OLB Ricky Sapp and will waive OLB Jason Ankrah

Disappointing Texans' injury news: Ricky Sapp w/ grade 2 hamstring injury, out 2-3 weeks. Houston sat Reed & Whit for whole series for Sapp
