Aaron Wilson reports that the Texans hosted a collection of defensive tackles for work outs on Tuesday, including:ย Josh Chapman, Lavon Hooks, Ishmaa’ily Kitchen, and Jerrell Powe.
Kitchen, 27, originally signed on with the Ravens as anย undrafted free agent out of Kent State back in 2012. He lasted just a few months with the Ravens before he was cut at the start of the 2012 season and later claimed by the Browns.
Kitchen wound up re-signing with the Browns as a restricted free agent this past May, but was unfortunately among the teamโs roster cuts.
In 2014,ย Kitchen appeared in 12 games and recorded 43 tackles for the Browns.
Chapman, 26, was waived by the Colts during their phase of roster cuts. Interesting enough, some believed he would be able to land the Colts’ starting nose tackle role this season.
In 2014, Chapman appeared in all 16 games, accumulatingย 21 total tackles and one forced fumble.
