The Houston Texans signed safety Reed Blankenship to a three-year, $24.75 million deal and guard Ed Ingram to a three-year, $37.5 million deal on Monday.

Blankenship, 27, spent the first four years of his career with the Philadelphia Eagles. He's coming off a 2025 season where he put up 83 tackles, four pass deflections, one forced fumble, and one interception. 

The standout safety in the Eagles' defense has recorded eight interceptions, 21 pass deflections, and 274 tackles in 46 games the past three seasons, committing only five penalties his entire career. However, he allowed a career-worst 111.4 opponent passer rating in 2025.

Ingram, 27, is heading back to the Texans after spending the 2025 season with the team, starting 14 games. The now five-year guard posted the eighth-highest run blocking grade (75.6) of 81 qualified guards, but allowed 24 quarterback pressures, four sacks, and four quarterback hits on 546 pass blocking snaps.

Despite that, his 97.2 pass blocking efficiency was a career high, all while his three penalties tied his career-low from the 2024 season. 

The former second-round pick of the 2022 NFL Draft spent the first three years of his career with the Minnesota Vikings
