According to Aaron Wilson, the Texans are signing veteran LB Jermaine Carter to the roster.
He’s the second veteran linebacker added today after Houston also re-signed LB Neville Hewitt.
Carter, 28, was drafted by the Panthers in the fifth round out of Maryland in 2018. He played out the final year of a four-year, $2.99 million rookie deal that included a $273,376 signing bonus.
He was testing unrestricted free agency for the first time in his career when he signed a one-year, $1.8 million deal with the Chiefs. However, Kansas City cut him coming out of the preseason.
Carter caught on with the Browns practice squad ahead of the 2022 season and bounced on and off their practice squad.
In 2022, Carter appeared in seven games for the Browns and recorded 15 total tackles.
