The Texans are working out interior offensive linemen Earl Watford and Harry Crider, according to league sources not authorized to speak publicly.
Watford, 31, is a former Arizona Cardinals third-round draft pick from James Madison University.
He has played in 71 career games with 25 career starts, including stints with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Chicago Bears, Cleveland Browns, New England Patriots and Jacksonville Jaguars. Watford was cut by Tampa Bay from its injured reserve list on Sept. 14.
Crider, 22, went undrafted out of Indiana and signed with the Philadelphia Eagles. He was with their practice squad as a rookie last year.
Crider (6-foot-4, 311 pounds) was a member of the Denver Broncos' practice squad until being released this month.
Meanwhile, Texans offensive linemen Lane Taylor and Cole Toner have reverted back to the practice squad.
