The Texans’ longest-tenured player will continue his time in Houston for at least the 2023 campaign. Long snapper Jon Weeks is re-signing on a one-year deal, as detailed by Aaron Wilson of KPRC. The contract is worth $1.165M and includes a $153K signing bonus.

The 37-year-old joined the team in 2010 and has not missed a game since. Weeks has suited up for 210 consecutive contests, and comfortably holds the franchise record for total games played (Andre Johnson ranks second with 169). His career has been defined by consistency, and includes a Pro Bowl nod in 2015.

This past season, the Baylor alum made six special teams tackles – the third-highest number in his career, and the most since his all-star campaign of 2015. He also eclipsed the 200 games played mark, a feat which drew organizational recognition and allowed Weeks to reflect on his career to date.

“It’s funny, you look back at it and it’s like your time in college, it’s flown by,” he said upon reaching the milestone. “It’s been a fun ride and I’ve enjoyed every second of it. I’m incredibly blessed to do what I’m doing right now. I love doing it and I love playing with the guys in the locker room. I’ve really enjoyed my time and I hope to continue going for as long as possible.”

With this deal in place for Weeks, each member of the Texans’ special teams battery is under contract for 2023. Kicker Ka’imi Fairbairn and punter Cameron Johnston are set to hit free agency next offseason, by which time Weeks will have in all likelihood further cemented his status as one of the most consistent and durable players in franchise history.
