Sports Illustrated’s Albert Breer believes “it would be a stunner” if Texans EDGE Will Anderson signed for less than $50 million per season.
The Texans and Anderson have been mutually interested in an extension for most of the offseason, though it hasn’t happened yet. The sticker shock is surely there reading "$50 million a year,” but it’s essentially no different than the $46 million that Micah Parsons got per season as part of his trade to the Packers given inflation. It shouldn’t surprise anyone when the deal comes in this high, but the rest of Houston’s offseason maneuverings (how much cap space do they still need available for 2026, etc) could be holding the extension up given just how large the contract will be.
