Fitzpatrick
was released by the Titans after they signed Charlie Whitehurst and his arrival in Houston would give the Texans a veteran quarterback with starting experience to use as a potential backup or placeholder for a rookie drafted in May. As PFT's Josh Alper notes, the Texans haven’t been in much of a hurry to part ways with Matt Schaub, but they may be starting to think about making a move most observers have seen as a certainty since Houston benched him in favor of Case Keenum last season. Schaub would also be a capable backup, but his $10 million base salary makes that a less than ideal choice. With
reported interest from the Raiders and Browns, the Texans are expected to try to trade him before choosing to release. ... Fitzpatrick, meanwhile, started nine games for the Texans last year in place of an injured Jake Locker and completed 62 percent of his passes while throwing 14 touchdowns and 12 interceptions.
