The Houston Texans have secured a cornerstone of their offensive line, reaching an agreement on a three-year contract extension with standout guard Ed Ingram, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
The deal is worth a total of $37.5 million, keeping Ingram in Houston through the 2028 season. The extension carries an average annual value of $12.5 million per year. According to Rapoport, the agreement was finalized by agent Nicole Lynn of Klutch Sports. Finalizing this extension was reportedly "a priority" for the Texans to complete before the official start of the NFL's free agency period.
Ingram has developed into a reliable presence in the interior for Houston, providing critical protection and run-blocking stability. By reaching terms today, the Texans avoid letting the veteran hit the open market during the legal tampering window, which allows teams to negotiate with unrestricted free agents. The move ensures that the Texans' offensive front remains intact as they look to build on their recent postseason momentum.
