Terrance Mitchell is finally getting his “money” from the Houston Texans. The Browns cornerback for the last three seasons has signed with Houston as a free agent.
The move was first reported over a week ago during the NFL’s legal tampering period but was not made official until Wednesday. Mitchell gets a two-year contract worth $7.5 million in Houston.
Mitchell, who popularly goes by “Money”, elevated from No. 3 corner in 2018-2019 to iron man in 2020. He played more defensive snaps than any other cornerback in the league, and he held his own playing above his pay grade in the Browns’ injury-riddled secondary. Mitchell produced 65 tackles, three forced fumbles and 13 PDs for the Browns last season.

Mitchell will be joined in Houston by former Browns teammates Vincent Taylor, Tavierre Thomas and Tae Davis, who have all agreed to terms with the Texans in the last few days.
Houston also officially added former Browns LB Christian Kirksey on Wednesday.
