New week, new running back workouts.
In continuation of a seemingly new tradition of trying out tailbacks weekly, the Houston Texans worked out Kenneth Dixon and Marcus Murphy on Tuesday, according to Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle.

In addition, Houston worked out wide receiver Victor Bolden and Tommylee Lewis and punter Cameron Nizialek.
The Texans did not sign any of their work out attendees.
Dixon, formerly of the Baltimore Ravens, has two seasons logged in the NFL. He was suspended for two-games in the 2017 season for violating the NFL performance-enhancing drug policy. He tore his meniscus in the same season.
In 18 games throughout his career, Dixon has 715 yards and four touchdowns on 148 rush attempts.
Murphy was released by the Buffalo Bills during roster cuts. He rushed for 250 yards on 52 attempts in 2018.
Lewis, famously known for being the victim of a non-call DPI with the New Orleans Saints, was released by the Detroit Lions after training camp . He served most of his three-year tenure in the bayou as a returner and backup slot receiver.
Like Murphy, Bolden was released by the Bills during cut-down day. He has one reception for 10 yards throughout his career.
