The Houston Texans have re-signed right guard Ed Ingram to a three-year, $37.5 million contract, according to multiple reports. The deal includes $23.5 million in guarantees and will keep Ingram, who was acquired in a trade with the Minnesota Vikings in 2025, from hitting free agency.

Why it matters

Ingram's return provides stability to the Texans' offensive line, which has already seen two 2025 starters traded away this month. As a key part of the team's offensive line, Ingram's re-signing helps ensure continuity as the Texans look to build on their recent performance.

The details

Ingram, a second-round pick by the Vikings in 2022, has started 55 of his 62 career games. He allowed the 12th-lowest pressure rate among guards with at least 400 pass-blocking snaps last season, according to ESPN's Next Gen Stats.

  • Ingram was acquired by the Texans in a March 2025 trade with the Minnesota Vikings.
  • The Texans re-signed Ingram to a 3-year, $37.5 million contract on March 9, 2026.
