Texans ink QB Orlovsky to back up Schaub (AP) (sports.yahoo.com)

Dan Orlovsky didn't want to be Detroit's backup quarterback. Now he's the backup for the Houston Texans. Orlovsky, who said he wanted to compete for a starting job rather than be a backup to Daunte Culpepper, signed Sunday to play behind Matt Schaub. The Texans needed a backup after trading Sage Rosenfels to the Vikings for a fourth-round draft pick Friday.
