Star pass-rusher Danielle Hunter and the Houston Texans have agreed to a two-year, $49 million deal, including $48 million guaranteed, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter on Tuesday.

The deal has a maximum value of $51 million, the source said.

In effect, the Texans and Minnesota Vikings are trading their 2023 sack leaders. On Monday, Jonathan Greenard, who led the Texans with 12.5 sacks last season, agreed to a four-year, $72 million contract with the Vikings.

He becomes the second star player added on Tuesday by the Texans, who earlier agreed to a trade with the Cincinnati Bengals to acquire running back Joe Mixon.
