Jadeveon Clowney Returns to Houston Texans on One-Year Deal

The Houston Texans have signed free agent edge-rusher Jadeveon Clowney to a one-year contract, marking his return to the team that drafted him first overall in 2014.

Clowney, who played for the Dallas Cowboys last season, recorded 8.5 sacks in 13 games, demonstrating his ability to pressure quarterbacks despite a situational role. His addition is expected to strengthen the Texans' defensive line, which already ranked among the top in the NFL with 47 sacks in 2025.

With Clowney joining a defensive lineup that includes Will Anderson Jr. and Danielle Hunter, the Texans are poised to enhance their defensive capabilities as they aim for a Super Bowl run.
