Blackson signed a contract with the Texans on Thursday, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.
The team opted not to tender Blackson as a restricted free agent but opted to bring him back after spending the final nine games of 2017 with the Texans. The 25-year-old recorded nine tackles and one pass break-up with Houston, and will likely serve as a rotational defensive lineman again next season.
Blackson was signed by the Texans on Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle reports.
Blackson was signed off the Patriots' practice squad, which is where he has been the entire season. He hasn't played since 2016, where he recorded just nine tackles (four solo). Regardless of his inexperience, the Texans need depth at defensive end since Joel Heath (knee) and Kendall Langford (back) are both nursing injuries, meaning Blackson could log a high snap count if both can't play.
