Chris Taylor has been placed on Injured Reserve thus ending his season because of recent knee surgery.  This doesn’t hurt the Texans as much as it hurts Taylor because they have a lot of depth at running back.  Still, Taylor was starting to emerge last season at the end of the year.  He played in 4 games (0 starts) and he carried the ball 28 times for 123 yards (4.4 ypc) with 1 TD run.  He also caught 3 passes for 40 yards (13.3 avg).  Hopefully Taylor can have a complete recovery and return to continue his NFL career in 2008.
