The Houston Texans are aware of what Tytus Howard means to the offensive line.
According to general manager Nick Caserio, the Texans have been working on a contract extension with their former 2019 first-round right tackle and are zeroing in on an extension.
Caserio told reporters during his opening presser on the first day of training camp that he expects the deal with Howard to be finalized by the end of the day.
The Texans have been generous when it comes to rewarding exemplary offensive line talent, as they reworked three-time Pro Bowl left tackle Laremy Tunsil’s contract in the offseason as he entered the final year of his deal.
#Texans' Nick Caserio says that Tytus Howard has earned an extension. Says they expect by the end of the day to have it resolved.

Howard started all 17 games for the Texans last year. The Alabama State product has also displayed position flex throughout his Texans tenure, notably in 2021 where he was a predominantly a left guard.
