Ex-Ravens linebacker Zach Orr visiting Texans

Former Baltimore Ravens linebacker Zach Orr is visiting the Texans on Monday, according to NFL sources not authorized to speak publicly.

A second-team All-Pro selection who led the Ravens last season with 132 tackles and intercepted three passes, Orr is meeting with multiple NFL teams.

The veteran free agent is seeking to relaunch his NFL career after originally deciding to retire in January due to a congenital condition discovered by Ravens team doctors that showed a vertebrae at the top of his neck wasn't completely formed. The birth defect was discovered when Orr sustained a pair of herniated disks in his neck late last season.
