Headed to Pack for sixth-rounder The Texans agreed Wednesday to trade Cobb to the Packers for a 2022 sixth-round draft pick, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Impact The report notes that Houston is expected to pay $3 million of Cobb's salary in order to facilitate the trade, which should become official within a few days. Cobb, who turns 31 next month, is coming off a 2020 season in which he caught 38 passes on 48 targets for 441 yards and three touchdowns in 10 games with the Texans. While those numbers aren't eye-popping, Cobb now looks like a bounce-back candidate in 2021, considering that he'll once again be catching passes from quarterback Aaron Rodgers. Cobb spent the first eight seasons of his career in Green Bay with Rodgers before one-year stops in Dallas and Houston.

Headed back to Green Bay soon The Packers are expected to finalize a trade with the Texans to acquire Cobb within the next few days, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Impact Green Bay will need to clear out some cap space before the deal becomes official, making room for Cobb's guaranteed $8.25 million base salary. Once he joins the Packers, Cobb could renegotiate his contract as part of the deal. The trade will reunite Cobb with reigning MVP Aaron Rodgers, who was present for Wednesday's training camp session following an offseason standoff.

Packers trade rumors: Randall Cobb deal done at the request of Aaron Rodgers Aaron Rodgers is set to get one of his former weapons back. He's returning to the Packers and Randall Cobb may join him via trade.

Could be headed to Green Bay The Packers are working on a trade to acquire Cobb from the Texans, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Impact Cobb turns 31 in August and has a guaranteed $8.25 million base salary this season, so any trade likely will involve a pay cut or some other form of contract renegotiation. If the Packers do in fact trade for Cobb, he'll presumably get most of the slot reps in three-wide formations, dampening the fantasy outlook for all of Allen Lazard, Marquez Valdes-Scantling and Amari Rodgers. Meanwhile, the Texans would be left with Keke Coutee and recent trade acquisition Anthony Miller competing for slot snaps.
