Newsbreakers
August 30, 2008
Earlier today we reported the Texans were battling to make a decision about rusher Chris Brown and his future with the team. We are now learning the franchise has decided to place Brown on injured reserve, according to the Houston Chronicle.

Our View:Brown, 27, has battled back problems all through training camp. It became the latest issue in what has been an injury-plagued career for Brown. Brown, signed a two-year contract worth $3.6 million this offseason with the Texans. He received $800,000 as a signing bonus.

The teams of the NFL are making final roster cuts today and one particular decision of interest may come from Houston where a source close to the team indicates the lack of knowledge about the health of rusher Chris Brown is weighing heavy, according to the Sporting News. Doctors have been a part of Brown's daily life in Houston and they are reportedly meeting again today with hopes of producing some kind of worthy prognosis for the season ahead, a report that will play a major role in making the final roster.

Our View:Brown is a capable performer when healthy and the hope is to see him share the field with veteran Ahman Green (an injury concern in his own right) and rookie Steve Slaton. However, if doctors believe Brown is a great risk and unlikely to maintain health, he could be released.

Chris Brown was slated to start against the Cowboys Friday, but was a late scratch due to his sore back, according to the Houston Chronicle. Coach Gary Kubiak said, "His back was bothering him Wednesday. When he got up Thursday, it was bothering him again. He had to get another shot in it. Once he got the shot, we couldn’t play him in the game." Chris Taylor started and carried 11 times for 47 yards.

Our View:Brown had a great opportunity to improve his bid to be the Texans' starting running back, but unfortunately his back did not cooperate.
August 19, 2008
Chris Brown will start at running back for the Houston Texans in their preseason game against Dallas, according to the Houston Chronicle. Rookie Steve Slaton will also see time with the first unit.

Our View:Do not read too much into this, as the team will likely use the dreaded (for fantasy owners, anyway) running-back-by-committee approach until Ahman Green gets healthy.
August 17, 2008
Chris Brown saw his first action of the preseason but struggled against the Saints, as he only mustered 18 yards on nine carries, according to the Houston Chronicle. His longest carry was only five yards.

Our View:Brown has fallen behind while dealing with a sore back, and is not a lock to make the final roster while competing with Ahman Green, Chris Taylor, Darius Walker, and rookie Steve Slaton.
