According to Brooks Kubena, the Texans are signing CB Steven Nelson to a contract.
Aaron Wilson reports that the Texans’ deal with Nelson is for two years and is worth $10 million.
Nelson recently was visiting with Houston, which has a major need at corner.
Nelson, 29, is a former third-round pick of the Chiefs back in 2015. He finished his four-year, $2.902 million rookie contract with the Chiefs before signing a three-year, $25 million contract with the Steelers in 2019.
Nelson was owed a base salary of $8,250,000 for the 2021 season when Pittsburgh released him. He later signed a one-year contract with the Eagles last July.
In 2021, Nelson appeared in 16 games for the Eagles and recorded 50 tackles, one interception, and seven pass deflections.
We had him included in our Top 100 – 2022 Free Agents list.
