The Houston Texans signed outside linebacker Brennan Scarlett to a one-year contract extension on Wednesday, putting him under contract with the team through 2020.
Terms were not disclosed, but the Houston Chronicle is reporting the deal is worth $3.75 million. He is scheduled to make $2.025 million in base salary this season after signing his restricted free-agent tender.
With Jadeveon Clowney yet to sign his franchise tender, Scarlett has been starting at his outside linebacker spot in training camp. Whitney Mercilus starts at the other outside linebacker spot.
Scarlett, 26, has appeared in 30 games during his first three seasons with the Texans after signing with Houston as an undrafted free agent out of Stanford in 2016.
