Houston Texans OT Duane Brown is expected to skip the mandatory minicamp that starts Tuesday, June 13, because he is unhappy with his contract situation, according to a source. The Texans can fine him as much as $80,400 if he decides to miss all three days.
Footballguys View: Brown is under contract through 2018, but there’s no more guaranteed money remaining on his deal. He’s got a cap hit of $9.6 million in 2017 and $9.7 million in 2018. Brown missed the first four games of 2016 with a torn quad, but he was a standout tackle upon his return.
