Football Betting Lines

07/30/2010 - Houston, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Houston Texans have signed cornerback Kareem Jackson, the team's first-round pick in the 2010 draft.

Terms of the deal were not disclosed, but the Houston Chronicle is reporting that the deal with Jackson, the 20th overall selection, is for five years and worth $13.1 million, with more than $10 million guaranteed.

Jackson spent his college career with Alabama. In 2009 as a junior, he broke up 13 passes and made 49 tackles during the Crimson Tide's national championship run.

Jackson is expected to start opposite Glover Quin because Houston's top cornerback last season, Dunta Robinson, signed with Atlanta as a free agent.

The Texans also announced Friday they have signed running back Ben Tate, Houston's second-round pick, and released rookie cornerback Pierre Singfield.

Taken 58th overall, Tate totaled 1,362 yards on 263 carries with 10 touchdowns for Auburn in 2009. He finished his career at the school with 3,321 yards on the ground, good for fifth all-time in Auburn history.

With Jackson and Tate in the fold, all nine of Houston's 2010 draft picks have signed.
