Tony Pauline of EssentiallySports is fairly tapped into the NFL and typically knows what is going on between teams. He is at the Shrine Bowl, where every team in the league has some representatives. Pauline has met with sources at the event that state the Texans will be going after Mays in free agency, “Sources here at the Shrine Bowl expect the Texans to make a run at Mayes once free agency opens to fill the hole they have at center. Mayes, a sixth-round pick by Carolina in 2022, has started 27 games for the Panthers, including 20 over the past two seasons.”
