Brown, 32, played in his first game of the season this past Sunday against the very same Seahawks team he is reportedly being dealt to. Remember, he had been a holdout after demanding a raise from his current six-year, $53.4 million deal.

This will be a major boon for a Seahawks team that has posted one of the worst pass-protecting offensive lines in football over the past several seasons. It’s one area general manager John Schneider needed to address in a big way. He did just that here.

In terms of compensation heading the Texans’ way, it’s being reported that cornerback Jeremy Lane will be involved in the deal.
