Texans to sign former Browns safety M.J. Stewart

The Houston Texans will have to say goodbye to Justin Reid as he continues his career with the Kansas City Chiefs, which means the AFC South club is finding new faces to say hello to as they fix the secondary.

According to John McClain from the Houston Chronicle, the Texans are signing former Cleveland Browns safety M.J. Stewart with Aaron Wilson of the Pro Football Network adding that the contract is a two-year deal.

Stewart played 29 games with the Browns from 2020-21, tallying 69 combined tackles, four tackles for loss, a quarterback hit, 1.0 sack, two interceptions, seven pass breakups, and a forced fumble.

Prior to playing for the Browns, Stewart was a former 2018 second-round pick for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. While with the Bucs for 21 career games, the former North Carolina Tar Heel collected 68 combined tackles, two tackles for loss, two quarterback hits, and five pass breakups.
