Brice McCain is staying in Houston for the next three years, according to McCain.
McCain tweeted: "Thank you to my agent @davidcanter I just agreed to terms on a new 3 year deal to remain with@houstontexans"
McCain mans the nickel cornerback position for the Texans. His smaller stature, and established starters in Johnathan Joseph and Kareem Jackson, make moving outside impractical. In 2011, McCain was as good as any slot cornerback in the league. In 2012, McCain struggled to maintain that dominance, but still maintained the confidence of the coaches, and was injured late in the season.
