The Justin Houston contract crisis is reaching critical mass, with the deadline coming in less than 24 hours for a long-term deal. The last we heard was that Houston’s agent, Joel Segal, and general manager John Dorsey were scheduled to talk, according to multiple reports including Pro Football Talk, Terez Paylor and Herbie Teope.
We are now at almost 5 p.m. CST, and nothing has been reported about the meeting. Perhaps absolutely nothing happened and the two sides are resigned to the fact Houston will be playing on the franchise tag. Or, just maybe, the two sides are still hard at work trying to hammer out a deal before the night comes.
