Texans Sign Timmy Jernigan To One-Year Deal

We interrupt your regularly scheduled Stardew Valley longplay quarantine/work from home with the following announcement.

The Texans have signed former Eagles defensive tackle Timmy Jernigan to a one-year contract worth $3.75 million (with $1.75 million guaranteed).

Jernigan missed most of the 2018-19 season after having surgery on his back during the offseason. Before his injury, Jernigan was known primarily for his ability to stuff the run and he will bring some much-needed depth to the Texans defensive line.

This continues a trend seen in the William O’Brien — General Manager era of the Texans: giving one year “prove it” deals to potentially high-quality players coming off of recent long-term injuries; starting with Tyrann Mathieu two years ago.
