Texans Signing S Antonio Allen

Jason La Canfora of CBS Sports reports that the Texans are signing S Antonio Allen to a contract on Wednesday.

Allen, 27, is a former seventh-round pick of the Jets back in 2012. He has played out his four-year, $2.1 million rookie contract and wasย testing the open market as an unrestricted free agent for the first time.

Allen, unfortunately, suffered a season-ending Achilles injury back in August of last year and was subsequently waived with the injury designation before reverting to the Jets injuredย reserve list.

In 2014, Allen appeared in 15 games for the Jets and recorded 41 tackles, a half sack, a forced fumble and six pass defenses.ย Pro Football Focusย rated him as the No. 63ย cornerback out of 108 qualifying players that year.
