Breaking down Texans G Lane Taylor’s contract

The Houston Texans bolstered the interior of their offensive line with the signing of former Green Bay Packers guard Lane Taylor.

According to NFL reporter Aaron Wilson, the details of the one-year contract include $1.127 million with a $137,500 signing bonus and a $990,000 salary. $262,500 of that salary is guaranteed. Taylor’s deal counts $987,500 against the salary cap under a veteran salary benefit, and the deal also includes an injury waiver, which lessens the risk on Houston’s part to take a chance on a player who has only played three games over the past two seasons.
