Houston Texans general manager Brian Gaine expressed optimism in today’s press conference in working a long term extension with Pro Bowl pass rusher and the former first overall pick of the 2014 NFL Draft, Jadeveon Clowney.
“That’s the spirit of the franchise tag,” Gaine said. “There is a reason why we did that and with every hope and intention to continue to work on that. That’s a negotiation, it is a process, it has to be a deal that makes sense for both sides for the player for the organization as it relates for the short term and long term.
