HOUSTON - The Houston Texans made another addition to their offensive line on Monday by signing free agent tackle Ephraim Salaam.

Houston drafted offensive tackles Eric Winston of Miami and Pittsburgh's Charles Spencer in the third round on Saturday in an attempt to improve a porous unit that has allowed David Carr to be sacked more than 200 times in the last four seasons.

Salaam spent the past two seasons with the Jacksonville Jaguars where he was relegated to backup duties in 2005 after starting 12 games in 2004. The 6-foot-7, 295-pound Salaam played in Denver for two season when new Houston coach Gary Kubiak was offensive coordinator there.

The eight-year NFL veteran spent his first four seasons with the Atlanta Falcons.

Terms of the deal were not released.

This is a good sign for the texans, Foster knows that Zone Blocking system from his time in Denver, if they can keep him healthy, Kub is working that line.
