LB Kevin Pierre-Louis agrees to 2-year, $8 million contract with Houston Texans

Another former Washington player is out the door on the first day of free agency in the NFL, with linebacker Kevin Pierre-Louis agreeing to a 2-year deal with the Houston Texans that will pay him $8 million.

Pierre-Louis only spent one year with the Washington Football Team, where he joined on a cheap, one-year contract that saw him perform well and earn a new deal going forward. Pierre-Louis finished the season with 56 total tackles, one sack and one forced fumble, and was a solid piece of the defense.

We already knew that Washington had a big need at the LB position this offseason, but with the departure of KPL, that need has only gotten bigger.
