Quessenberry, 28, is a former fifth-round pick by the Chargers in the 2018 NFL Draft out of UCLA. He played out the final year of a four-year, $2,744,252 rookie contract and caught on with the Texans to a one-year, $1.2 million deal for the 2022 season. 

He re-signed to another one-year deal in 2023 but missed all of last season on injured reserve. He was testing the market as an unrestricted free agent. 

In 2022, Quessenberry started 16 games for the Texans at center.
