The Houston Texans restructured the contract of veteran wide receiver Brandin Cooks, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and the Houston Chronicle's Aaron Wilson.
Wilson noted Cooks was originally supposed to count for $12 million against the salary cap for 2021 but that the Texans freed up $6.5 million from that figure.
The move comes amid continued speculation about the future of quarterback Deshaun Watson, who has reportedly requested a trade.
