Antowain Smith looked good in Houston's last exhibition game, but in the end, the Texans chose youth over experience when they cut the 34-year-old running back Friday.

Houston released 18 other players, but still must cut two more to get to 53-man limit by the NFL deadline on Saturday.

Coach Gary Kubiak said releasing Smith was a tough decision. Ultimately, the Texans felt rookie Chris Taylor could be more valuable to the team.

"But the bottom line was that it was a decision about youth and about Chris' ability to become a returner, which is something we think he can do in this league," Kubiak said.

I'm sure he left Houston in a Honda.
