Myers played the first three years of his career with the Denver Broncos after being selected in the sixth round of the 2005 draft, then moved on to spend the next seven seasons in Houston.
He emerged as one of the league's top centers over that span, starting in all 112 games and earning Pro Bowl nods in 2011 and 2012 before parting ways with the club this offseason.
Myers' steady presence on Houston's interior offensive front helped lead the team to top-five finishes in rushing yards on four separate occasions.
