Kansas City Chiefs cornerback Bashaud Breeland may hit free agency when the new NFL year starts on March 18, and the Houston Texans ought to consider him in their plans to address the cornerback position.

Breeland made the media rounds on Wednesday. While the former 2014 fourth-round pick from Clemson would love to stay with the Super Bowl champions, ultimately, Breeland desires to be with a team that needs him, wants him, and that he can elevate.

“I would love to continue on this journey with the Chiefs,” Breeland told “The SiriusXM Blitz” on SiriusXM NFL Radio. “I feel like they’ve got something special and I would love to be a part of it. I’m thankful for the opportunity that they allowed me to come in and be a part of an organization that allowed me to grow. When it comes to free agency I just want to be somewhere I’m needed and wanted. And where I can help bring the team to a winning stature.”

The Texans fit the bill of a team that could use Breeland. With starting cornerbacks Johnathan Joseph and Bradley Roby set to hit free agency, the two-time AFC South champions will have to rely on veterans Gareon Conley and Vernon Hargreaves to start with 2019 second-round pick Lonnie Johnson backing them up.

Breeland spent the first four seasons of his career in Washington before he joined the Green Bay Packers during the 2018 regular season. The Chiefs gave Breeland a one-year contract during 2019 free agency, and he contributed to Kansas City’s championship effort with two interceptions, eight pass breakups, two fumble recoveries, one returned for a touchdown, 48 tackles, and a tackle for loss in his 16 games, 15 of which he started.

At 5-11, 195 pounds, Breeland would be of comparable size to Roby and Joseph, both of whom are 5-11 while the former is a pound lighter and the latter is 10 pounds lighter.

The Texans will have decisions to make with regards to cornerback. If they decide to look outside the organization for help, Breeland could be a contributor.
