The Houston Texans have reached agreement with Cincinnati Bengals cornerback Johnathan Joseph on a five-year deal, according to sources. A person with knowledge of Joseph's deal told The Associated Press it was worth $48.75 million, with $23.5 million guaranteed. The Texans went 6-10 last season and were desperate to land a top-tier cornerback.

The Bengals drafted Joseph out of South Carolina with the 24th overall pick in 2006. Read more: http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/6...ohnathan-joseph-agree-5-year-deal-sources-say
