Duane Brown ends holdout, returns to Texans

About damn time, now our o-line can get back into shape, but he missed 6 games and practices. Not sure how this will effect his performance.

Good for Brown, he returns to a good Texans team that's led by a very good Deshaun Watson.

Eh, I'm sure he's been doing conditioning in the event he got traded or an extension so he was ready to go. Brown at 31 has the technique down which is a huge part of a tackle position so not much is lost there. He also has a bye to freshen up although the next game is against Seattle so he's going to have his hands full with opposing d-lineman.

$3M lost though, yikes. Left tackles are hard to find these days though, so maybe it was worth it.

I just don't get these guys though... agents clearly know these guys are dumb as fuck and probably feed them a line when negotiating their contract. "Oh yah this is a killer deal. Don't worry about the guaranteed, the final couple years of your contract we can easily re-negotiate. Just sign here!" The agent meanwhile is standing behind the obvious oaf signing away winking to the GM/coach who are probably browsing p0rn or something on the computer.

Lets hope he lives up to it.
