I get they are playing with the cap, but I don’t like being wed to Schultz for 2 more seasons. That kind of sucks.
Yeah re-signing our mid weapons isn’t getting anyone excited. His leading the team in receptions is more of an indictment of our WR room than it is an accomplishment for him. We want to see some OLs sign this weekend. We really want draft flexibility feeling like we have most of our starters before the draft, not desperately chasing holes as we get there
I don’t think he’s bad . I just think he’s very average and I don’t like being locked into him at $12 mil for 2027. But if it clears real cap space for us so we can sign an o-lineman next week then I get it.
Where do the Texans stand in cap after today’s flurry of re-signing, extensions, restructures, Mixon cut
