Javdevon Clowney is set to a be a free agent but he has made it clear that his wish is to stay with the Houston Texans even going as far as saying this is where he would like to be his entire career. The former top overall pick played his last year of his contract on a club option and now will be a free agent in March.
The Texans have expressed a desire to bring him back and there are thoughts in some league circles that they will use the franchise tag on him. Clowney wants to come back but is most concerned about getting better and knows the contract will work itself out.
“Of course, I want to come back,” Clowney said via the Houston Chronicle. “I promise to the Texans and whoever else is watching that I'm going to be a much better, improved player next season. I haven't been thinking about a contract. If I come back and play well like I know I'm going to, contract will take care of itself. I'm going to work on my craft and work on my game. That's what I'm worrying about.”
Clowney was asked about how he would feel he had the franchise tag placed on him.
“We'll talk about that when it comes,” Clowney said. “If I'm here or somewhere else, wherever I'm at next year, I'm going to make sure I'm an improved player, a much better player than I am this year. I can promise you that.”
