The Texans auditioned former Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Dezman Moses, according to a league source not authorized to speak publicly.

Moses is a former undrafted free agent from Tulane who signed with the Green Bay Packers out of college.

Texans special-teams ace Brian Peters has missed the past two games with a quadriceps injury, and rookie outside linebacker Brennan Scarlett was placed on injured reserve last week with a hamstring injury.

Moses started six games as a rookie for Green Bay, recording 27 tackles and four sacks.

He's played for the Chiefs most recently. He has two tackles in three games this season.

The New Jersey native has been off and on the Chiefs' roster this year and was cut earlier this month.

He has 40 career tackles, four sacks and two forced fumbles.
