Texans guard Ed Ingram has agreed to a three-year contract worth about $37.5 million to stay in Houston, per Ian Rapoport; the former Vikings second-round pick was traded to Houston last year, started 14 regular-season games and both postseason games, and is expected to be the Texans' starting guard again this season.
The Houston Texans signed right guard Ed Ingram to a three-year, $37.5 million deal (with $23.5 million guaranteed), aiming to strengthen their rebuilt offensive line. Ingram showed improved run-blocking in Houston after leaving Minnesota, though his pass protection was uneven, and the contract places him among solid, mid-tier guards as the team reshapes its OL.
Ed Ingram, the sophomore guard for the Minnesota Vikings, was a major cause for concern in their Week 1 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He struggled with pass protection, constantly putting pressure on quarterback Kirk Cousins. Ingram's lack of spatial awareness has been an ongoing issue, and he even caused a crucial fumble during the game. If he doesn't improve soon, it could have a detrimental impact on the Vikings' offensive line and their season.
The Minnesota Vikings may need to add depth to their offensive line in the 2023 NFL Draft, particularly at right guard where Ed Ingram struggled in pass-blocking during his rookie season. UCLA's Jon Gaines II, a solid run blocker and above-average pass-blocker, could be a good option for the Vikings in the fifth round and could challenge Ingram for the starting job in training camp.
