Texans Re-Sign OT Trent Brown to One-Year Deal Worth Up to $7 Million

The move secures veteran protection before the March 11 league-year start.

Overview

  • Agent Drew Rosenhaus told ESPN’s Adam Schefter that Brown agreed to a one-year contract with a maximum value of $7 million.
  • Houston has agreements to trade Tytus Howard to the Browns and Juice Scruggs to the Lions in the deal for RB David Montgomery, with both moves pending league approval on March 11.
  • Brown started seven games last season and posted the sixth-lowest pressure rate (7.1%) among right tackles in Weeks 10–16, according to Next Gen Stats.
  • He started the wild-card win over the Steelers, then missed the divisional round with an ankle injury after a 2024 patellar tendon tear that delayed his 2025 debut.
  • Pro Football Rumors reports the deal likely includes playing-time incentives, and Houston’s tackle plan will factor in younger options such as Blake Fisher and Aireontae Ersery.
