According toย Field Yates of ESPN, the Houston Texans brought in former Packers NTย Ryan Pickett for a tryoutย this week.
Many assumed that Pickett could return to Green Bay after they lost B.J. Raji for the season, however the Packers have not shown interest in re-signing him.
Pickett mentioned during the summer that he was hoping to sign on with a new team beforeย the start of training camp, but that obviously never happened.
Pickett, 34, was one of only a few free agent signingย Packers GMย Ted Thompsonย has made over the course ofย his tenure in Green Bay.ย Last year, Pickett appeared in all 16 games for Green Bay and totaledย 21 tackles.
Pro Football Focusย had Pickett rated as the No. 53 defensive tackle in the league last season.
