Not long after receiving one big extension, the Houston Texans have paid off the other half of the NFL’s most prolific running back.
Will Anderson Jr. and the Texans agreed to terms on a three-year, $150 million extension on Friday, NFL Networks insider Ian Rapoport reported.
Rapoport added that Anderson’s contract, which makes him the highest-paid non-QB ever, includes $134 million guaranteed and also includes a no-trade clause.
The record deal comes on the heels of Anderson’s first-team All-Pro campaign in 2025 after he posted a career-best 12 sacks last year. His three forced fumbles, 54 tackles, 20 tackles for loss and 23 QB hits were also career highs, and Anderson’s 85 QB pressures were second in the NFL, according to Next Gen Stats.
Anderson’s new deal also comes after his backup, Danielle Hunter, received a one-year, $40.1 million extension on March 5. Houston’s Anderson and Hunter were the only teammates to finish in the league’s top 10 in 2025.
Working on an extension for Anderson was one of Houston’s top priorities this offseason, Rapoport reported on Feb. 26.
