Signed through 2018... that's pretty awesome. Not a bad year for Duane!

yeah, i am a bit surprised at the numbers as well. he could have almost certainly gotten significantly more than this on the open market. i guess getting the guarenteed money set a year early(in case of injury this season) was somewhat of a factor, but there is no doubt he made the conscious decision to take less to stay here and play for this team and still allow the team to have cap space to work on their other guys.
brown has skyrocketed up my list of favorite texans.
