Quarterback Matt Leinart has been on the job for three weeks now after signing with the Texans on Sept. 3. The 2004 Heisman Trophy winner and former Arizona Cardinals starter has been inactive as the Texans’ third quarterback in each game this season. But his progress under Gary Kubiak, Rick Dennison and Greg Knapp has been steady. “I like what I see,†Kubiak said. “He’s getting comfortable each and every week. I think he could go in and function in 65-70 percent of our offense right now. We’ve got him at that point where we’re really working with his mechanics and his feet and some things I think we could change with him to help him to become a better player. “It’s one step at a time, but he’s doing his part and working very hard… You never know. We may need him before it’s said and done, and we’re making progress with him.†Source: HoustonTexans.com
