Report: Texans Release CB Aaron Colvin One Year Into Four-Year, $34 Million Deal

The Houston Texans have released cornerback Aaron Colvin just over one year after signing him, ESPN's Adam Schefter reported on Tuesday.

Colvin, 27, joined the Texans in March 2018 after signing a four-year, $34 million contract that included $18 million guaranteed and a $4 million signing bonus. The cornerback still has $7.5 million guaranteed this year, per Schefter.

Drafted by the Jaguars in the fourth round of the 2014 NFL draft, Colvin played in just six games his rookie season, recording 23 solo tackles. He spent the next three seasons in Jacksonville before having a down year with the Texans last season after an ankle injury kept him sidelined for six games and limited him to two starts, 29 tackles and one pass defended.
