As the Texans hoped, Sheldon Rankins will be in the fold next season. The veteran defensive tackle has agreed to a new Houston deal.
Rankins is signing a two-year contract with the Texans, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports. The pact includes $12MM in guarantees. Rankins will be counted on to remain a key presence on the team’s elite defense moving forward as a result of today’s news. An average annual value of “well over” $6MM is present in this new pact, per KPRC2’s Aaron Wilson.
More to come…
It may not work out but locking down what’s working in lieu of rolling the dice in free agency just feels good as a Texans fan. Especially after watching most Astros departing during their run. Caserio is consistently very methodical in his approach to roster building which is also very enjoyable as a fan, even when I don’t like his choices I understand them.
Yeah, at this price and with the results they’ve gotten, it’s very hard to argue with running it back with Rankins.
Love it
They got Ingram at a nice price too
All that’s left is drafting a G and DT early like Kaden Proctor G out of bama and Kayden McDonald out of OSU DT
