A breakdown of the first week of free agency for the Houston Texans:
Most significant signing: There aren’t many options to choose from, as the Texans have signed only three players so far in free agency -- and they were all re-signings. The most significant was kicker Nick Novak, who was an important part of Houston’s offense last season; the Texans probably would not have made the playoffs without him. In 2016, Novak connected on a career-high 35 field goals, which was the second most in the NFL last season. If the Texans aren’t able to fix their issues in the red zone, he will continue to be a key part of the offense.
