Texans Agree to Two-Year Deal With Three-Time Pro Bowl Guard Wyatt Teller

Houston adds a veteran interior starter to stabilize protection for C.J. Stroud.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets report a two-year agreement valued at $16 million in base pay with incentives pushing the deal up to $23 million.
  • Teller is expected to start on the interior at left guard, with Ed Ingram remaining at right guard after his extension.
  • The move continues an offensive-line overhaul that has included additions such as right tackle Braden Smith plus interior options Evan Brown and Ed Ingram.
  • The 31-year-old former Brown is a three-time Pro Bowler and two-time second-team All-Pro whose recent knee and calf issues limited availability the past two seasons.
  • Cleveland signaled its split by adding Zion Johnson and Elgton Jenkins and will carry Teller-related dead cap, with Yahoo Sports noting charges of over $8 million in 2026 and $11 million in 2027.
