A day after being waived by the Oakland Raiders, linebacker LaTroy Lewis has found a new home with the Houston Texans who claimed the undrafted rookie off waivers.

The former Tennessee Volunteer took to Twitter on Sunday to let everyone know that he will be moving on to H-town.

Rather than stick around in Oakland and work his way up from the practice squad, Lewis opted to go and compete for a roster spot with the Texans.

Lewis played in every preseason game with the Raiders, recording 12 combined tackles and three sacks.

After dropping the Arizona Cardinals quarterbacks twice in the preseason opener, coach Jack Del Rio said that no one really expected that kind of debut from Lewis.

With general manager Reggie McKenzie deciding to move on without Lewis and veteran linebacker Jelani Jenkins, it will be interesting to see if he decides to make a move for a more established player to help a positional group that is still pretty thin.
