The Houston Texans have barely made a peep in free agency — they’ve signed guys to fair but meager deals and have yet to make a huge splash. This week, which was when the legal tampering period ended and teams could exclusively negotiate with players, the Houston Texans came up short.
They allowed Tyrann Mathieu, Kareem Jackson, Christian Covington and to a lesser extent, Kendall Lamm all partake in the riches that were waiting for them with other teams.
With the Houston Texans having $80 million or so to spend at the start of the free agency period, the team’s signings have quickly dwindled their balance to about $46 million with the bulk of the charge to pay for Jadeveon Clowney‘s $17 million franchise tag for this season.
