Texans Cut Rosevelt Colvin...maybe to Colts?

The Houston Texans has just cut 21 players including LB Rosevelt Colvin that could come to a suprise to many.  The article had to say this about Colvins cut:

"Colvin is the biggest name. The Texans signed the veteran to be a pass rush specialist, but Gary Kubiak said Colvin's work wasn't good enough to justify keeping him for such a narrow role over a player who could contribute on special teams."

During the offseason, the Colts did have interest in him thus taking a physical for the team.  However, whether it was for financial reasons or not, Colvin chose to play for the Texans.  Now, Colvin could appear back in Colts rumor as a potential backup LB due to injuries at the position.  However, I do not see him in a Colts uniform unless he takes a significant financial cut and accepts the fact that he could play a less significant role with the team.  Also I could be wrong on this one, but I thought the Colts were going to use him at DE as a pass rusher and not at LB which seems even more unlikely with the emergence of C. Johnson and M. Howard.  All in all, he could be a player to look at after Saturdays cuts but that's about it.  But you never know with Polian and the Colts.

Heres the link to the ESPN article:
