[h=1]Ed Reed on the verge of becoming a Texan[/h] Posted on March 20, 2013 at 6:08 pm by Tania Ganguli in General
Ed Reed will be signing with the Houston Texans. Team officials and Reed are hammering out final details on the contract, which could be a two-year deal, rather than the three-year deal initially offered according to a person familiar with the negotiation.
In one of the initial reports, Reed told NFL Network’s Albert Breer that while nothing was official, “unless something changes,” he would be signing with the Texans.
Reed spent his first 11 NFL seasons with the Baltimore Ravens and has mulled his options since visiting with the Texans last Thursday and Friday. The Texans offered him a three-year deal worth $4 million per year.
Possibly delaying the deal becoming official is the fact that Texans general manager Rick Smith is currently flying back from Phoenix where he was at the NFL league meetings.
