Brown joins Robert Woods as the second wide receiver to agree to a deal with the Texans since free agency began. The Texans announced Tuesday that they had signed Woods to a deal. . The Texans have not signed anyone to account for the inevitable departure of leading wide receiver Brandin Cooks, who has a standing trade request. Cooks said after the season that he didn’t want to be a part of a rebuild and was looking to move on.
