Texans' Derek Stingley Jr. is now the NFL's highest-paid CB at $30 million per season

In 2024, the Houston Texans won the AFC South and made the playoffs for a second straight season. Houston was 10-7 last year and beat the Chargers 32-12 in the wildcard round. 

Despite a 23-14 loss to the Chiefs in the divisional, the Texans still have a lot to build off of. Instead of picking up his fifth-year option, Houston is signing CB Derek Stingley Jr. to a long-term deal. He is getting a three-year, $90 million contract with $89 million guaranteed. Stingley is now the highest-paid CB at $30 million per season.
