Texans trade RB Morency
Pro Football Talk first reported, and now KILT-610 has confirmed that the Texans have traded running back Vernand Morency to the Packers, for running back Samkon Gado. The trade presumably is contingent upon both players passing physicals.
It's likely that Texans assistant Mike Sherman sold Gary Kubiak on the Packers running back, since Sherman obviously would have been familiar with him.
The Texans roster continues to churn. This is definitely a team in full-on rebuilding mode.
UPDATE: The AP reports the following:
Gado was one of the few bright spots in the Packers' 4-12 season last year, advancing from the practice squad to become the team's starting running back near the end of the season. But Gado has struggled to adjust to the zone-blocking scheme being run by new Packers coach Mike McCarthy.
Well, maybe he'll adjust to the zone-blocking scheme being run by the Texans.
