JALEN REEVES-MAYBIN NEWS

Signing with Texans Reeves-Maybin will sign a two-year, $7.5 million contract with the Texans on Thursday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

Impact Reeves-Maybin spent his first five professional seasons with the Lions, and he had a career-best year in 2021. Across 15 appearances, he logged 82 tackles (53 solo), four pass defenses, two forced fumbles and a fumble recovery. The 27-year-old will be rewarded with a two-year deal from the Texans, and he should have a chance to carve out a sizable role in the team's defense.

Impact Reeves-Maybin missed Weeks 13 and 14 with the injury but was able to return in Week 15 against the Cardinals, where he recorded three tackles and two passes defensed on 96 percent of the defensive snaps.
