Former University of Kansas Jayhawk football player Moran Norris has signed a one year deal to play for the Houston Texans. This marks the second time in his professional football career that Norris has left a team only to come back and play for them.

Norris has played the last two seasons for the San Francisco 49ers after playing in the Bay Area for a year previously in 2006-2007. Norris previously played for the Texans for three years from 2002-2005. The move is an important one for Houston as they try and find blocking help for their star running back

The only other fullbacks on the roster are unproven rookies Jason Ford and Derrell Smith, so Norris' experience could come in handy as they look for a player who will hope clear the path for Arian Foster this season.
