Now that DeMeco Ryans and C.J. Stroud showed that the Houston Texans are capable of reaching the AFC Divisional Round, the next step is going further. After showing so much potential in their first season together, the Texans are suddenly one of the most coveted spots for free agents in the NFL.With around $70 million in cap space, the Texans simply don’t have a lot of money to spend. . . , but instead of signing good players, they hunt for talent. Signing a young franchise quarterback to a rookie deal is a good place to be, and now the Texans could benefit greatly this offseason.The Houston Texans are not like other teams.
Many of their top needs are filled, at quarterback, left tackle and their top pass rusher. But of course this team has needs.One area the Texans will have to address one way or another is their frontmen Blake Cashman and Jonathan Greenard in free agency.
Both players have expressed a desire to return to Houston, but anything is possible when they hit the open market, including receiving an offer they can’t refuse elsewhere. Ultimately, if the Texans were serious about keeping both players, they would already be signed, but that doesn’t mean the negotiations are over.Regina turns 25 in August and is three years younger than Cashman. If the cost difference is only a few million, Houston may be the perfect choice because they have a lot more money to spend than their competitors. Spotrac estimates Regina could receive a contract worth $18.5 million per season..
