Carter and the Texans agreed to terms on a one-year deal Thursday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

Carter will head to Houston after playing in seven games for Cleveland last season, where the 2018 fifth-round pick logged 16 tackles (eight solo) while playing on both defense and special teams. The 28-year-old should compete for a spot as a reserve linebacker and special teamer heading into the 2023 campaign.
