Before he was traded from the Chargers to the Bears on Thursday, wide receiver Keenan Allen revealed that Los Angeles had permitted him to explore several options for where he wanted to continue his career after spending 11 seasons with the franchise.

Texans Give Joe Mixon Three-Year, $27M Extension

Mar 15, 2024 8:24 AM

The Houston Texans are giving Joe Mixon a three-year, $27 million contract extension just days after acquiring him in a trade with the Cincinnati Bengals.

The running back will receive $13 million in guaranteed money, according to sources.

Houston traded a 2024 seventh-round pick to Cincinnati for Mixon after he was expected to be released.

"I gotta say it was definitely shocking," Mixon said of the trade. "I took that 24 to 48 hours to hurt. It took a while and I'm still having emotional feelings about it. But that's the place where I can forever feel like that's home for me."

Son's Guardianship Bid For Texans Owner Dropped

Feb 27, 2024 8:57 AM

A lawsuit filed by one of the sons of the owner of the Houston Texans that had sought to have her declared incapacitated and have a guardian appointed for her has been dropped.

Robert Cary McNair, Jr. had filed his application for appointment of a guardian for Janice McNair, 87, in November with a probate court in Harris County, where Houston is located.

News of the end of the case was first reported by the Houston Chronicle. Jeremy Fielding, an attorney for Cary McNair, said the family made the joint decision to address these issues privately.

Fielding said Cary McNair is concerned about his mother's health and that he filed the lawsuit to protect her and not to "control her estate, as his brother Cal has incorrectly suggested."
