The Houston Texans have reportedly acquired wide receiver Anthony Miller in a trade with the Chicago Bears, according to ESPN's Sarah Barshop. The Texans and Bears also swapped late-round draft picks in the deal.

Miller showed his excitement about the move in a tweet directed to Texans fans:

The Bears selected Miller in the second round of the 2018 draft and he led the team with seven touchdown catches during his rookie campaign. However, he has caught just four total touchdown passes in the last two seasons.

Miller joins a receiving group in Houston that includes Brandin Cooks and Randall Cobb. The 26-year-old has a cap hit of $1.2 million in 2021, the final year of his rookie deal.
