Texans' Head Coach Gary Kubiak Impressed with Matt Leinart Jersey
Matt Leinart Jersey will get a chance to compete for the Houston Texans' backup quarterback job.
And while that's not what was envisioned for the former Heisman Trophy winner when he was drafted No. 10 overall by the Arizona Cardinals in the 2006 NFL Draft, Texans' Head coach Gary Kubiak said he likes what he has seen from Matt Leinart Jersey so far.
The Texans signed Matt Leinart Jersey after his release from Arizona late last week.
"You can tell he's played a lot of football," Kubiak said told John McClain of the Houston Chronicle. "He spent the last two days with (quarterback coach) Greg (Knapp) and kind of getting down our base stuff. We'll see how far we can bring him,NCAA Jerseys, but I think he fits in what we do, and we're excited to work with him. To have Matt walk in your locker room gives us more confidence at the quarterback position and makes us stronger."
Matt Leinart Jersey, according to McClain, spent the Wednesday practice "watching, learning and throwing a few scout-team passes." He told McClain he had been told he will have a chance to compete with Dan Orlovsky for the backup job behind starter Matt Schaub.
"My mindset is just to learn and compete and to soak it in as much as I can," Matt Leinart Jersey said. "It's a completely different offense that I'm used to as far as the terminology. I think I'll get it pretty quick. I've just got to keep studying. It's more play-action stuff. That's what I did a lot in college (at USC) and something we actually didn't do a whole lot in Arizona because Kurt (Warner) had his strength with four or five wides. We weren't under the center a whole lot."
Competing with Orlovsky is not what many envisioned for Matt Leinart Jersey four years ago, and there's little question Matt Leinart Jersey's career thus far hasn't been what he envisioned. But working under Kubiak, one of the NFL's best coaches at developing quarterbacks, could be a chance for a new start.
If first impressions mean anything, Kubiak thinks he has something solid with which to work. |
