Jadeveon Clowney signs with Houston Texans over Arizona Cardinals

Jadeveon Clowney has signed a one-year contract with the Houston Texans, missing the opportunity to join the Arizona Cardinals. The Cardinals, who might need additional support at pass rusher, had considered Clowney, who had a productive season with 24.5 sacks over the past three years. Clowney's decision to return to Houston, where he previously played for five seasons, reflects his ties to the city, as he spends his offseasons there. The Texans, who are enhancing their roster, welcome back Clowney, a former first overall draft pick and three-time Pro Bowler.
