HOUSTON, Texas -- Jadeveon Clowney is returning to the Houston Texans, the team that selected him No. 1 overall in the 2014 NFL draft, sources told NFL Network's Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo on Sunday.

The reunion comes after Clowney had visited the Cleveland Browns last week, prompting general manager Andrew Berry to tell reporters he was hopeful his team could strike a deal with the pass rusher.

The Texans' defense already boasted two of the top pass rushers in the NFL in Will Anderson Jr. (12) and Danielle Hunter (15), who combined for 27 sacks last season and now adds Clowney, who led the Dallas Cowboys with 8. 5 sacks in 2025, including three in the season finale against the New York Giants.
