Texans Restructure Tytus Howard's Deal
9 months agoThe Houston Texans restructured veteran offensive lineman Tytus Howard's $56 million contract on Friday to create $10.3 million in salary cap space for this year, according to a league source. Howard was due a $14 million base salary in 2024, but the team converted $12.875 million of that into a fully guaranteed signing bonus. His new base salary is now the minimum $1.125 million, and his salary cap figure is down from $18.705 million to $8.405 million. The team also recently restructured guard Shaq Mason's contract to create another $6.4 million in cap space. Howard, a first-rounder (23rd overall) in 2019 out of Alabama State, only played in seven games in 2023 and needed surgery to fix patellar-tendon issues, so it's unclear if the starting right tackle will be ready for Week 1 of the 2024 season.
