Cornerback Kayvon Webster was released by the Rams in April and didn’t draw any immediate interest in the open market as he was still rehabbing the torn Achilles he suffered last December.

His market appears be heating up. Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Webster has lined up visits with the Texans Aaron Colvin Jersey , Bills and Lions next week.

Webster started all 11 games he played for the Rams last season, but the injury and the arrivals of Aqib Talib and Marcus Peters changed the landscape at corner in L.A. He had 38 tackles and an interception in last year’s appearances and had 183 tackles and an interception in four seasons with the Broncos.

Texans cornerback Kevin Johnson went to the hospital with a concussion on Saturday, which might increase the desire to add a player to the secondary in Houston this week.

In an interleague matchup between two offensively challenged last-place teams, a pair of runs was plenty for the Miami Marlins against the light-hitting Baltimore Orioles.

Jose Urena became the latest pitcher to raise his win total and lower his ERA against the Orioles, pitching eight innings of three-hit ball in a 2-0 victory Friday night.

It was the eighth straight loss for the Orioles, their longest skid since July 2011. The Orioles have dropped 15 of 17 overall and 10 straight at home, scoring only 14 runs.

”We’ve got some people that we know are capable of a lot better just aren’t able to produce right now Tyrone Crawford Jersey ,” manager Buck Showalter said. ”There’s a lot of positive things being said before the game, and it just seems when we get into the game, we get back in that same situation we’ve been in many times.”

Urena (2-8) struck out four and walked one in his longest and most efficient outing of the season.

”He’s a strong kid, and honestly if we had a bigger lead I would’ve sent him back out,” manager Don Mattingly said. ”He could’ve finished that.”

Urena, who started for Miami on opening day, is 2-1 in June after an 0-7 start.

”That was pretty good Thomas Davis Jersey ,” he said of his 112-pitch performance. ”I tried to attack the batters in the zone. That was the plan.”

Kyle Barraclough worked a perfect ninth for his fifth save.

Lewis Brinson hit two triples for the Marlins, who have won four of five.
