John McClain of the Houston Chronicle expects the Texans to wait on a long-term contract extension for Matt Schaub (Lisfranc surgery) until he proves he can stay healthy.
The Texans need to see Schaub bounce back from a Lisfranc fracture at age 31, and he's had durability issues throughout his NFL career. "They're not gonna give him an extension 'til he proves he can stay healthy," McClain said. "That he can indeed bounce back from the Lisfranc surgery." In a worst case scenario, the Texans could slap Schaub with the franchise tag next year.
