The Houston Texans weren’t done adding veteran talent to the roster as offseason workouts kicked off. After the 2022 NFL draft, the Texans signed former Buffalo Bills defensive ends Mario Addison and Jerry Hughes.
According to Brad Spielberger from Pro Football Focus, the Texans’ two-year, $10 million deal with Jerry Hughes — with $5.5 million guaranteed — ranked No. 24 in their list of top-32 contracts across the league this season.
The Texans brought in Hughes to help with the attitude of the defensive line. The former Sugar Land Stephen F. Austin High School product is appreciative of the opportunity to play in his home metro area and show the younger Texans defensive line how to carry themselves as pros.
