Texans Sign E.J. Speed To One-Year Deal
2 days agoThe Houston Texans are signing former Indianapolis Colts linebacker E.J. Speed to a one-year, $5 million deal on Saturday, sources tell FOX Sports' Jordan Schultz. Speed will head to Houston after spending six seasons with the Colts. The 29-year-old former fifth-rounder (164th overall) in 2019 out of Tarleton State had a career year in 2024 in Indy, totaling 142 tackles (93 solo), seven tackles for loss, his first career interception and five passes defensed in 15 starts. Last year was the second straight season that Speed had 100-plus combined tackles, making him a staple in IDP fantasy leagues as he heads into his first year in Houston. Speed hasn't excelled in pass coverage, but he's proven to be a tackling machine and will be a notable addition to the middle of a Texans defense that was quite good overall last year.
