Teller, who turns 32 in November, joins the Texans after seven seasons with the Cleveland Browns, where he established himself as a reliable interior lineman. Originally selected in the fifth round by the Buffalo Bills in 2018, he was traded to Cleveland in 2019 and went on to make 94 starts, earning three consecutive Pro Bowl selections from 2021 to 2023 and second-team All-Pro honors in 2020 and 2021. Known for his physicality in the run game, Teller started 13 games at right guard for the Browns in 2025 but dealt with a calf injury that sidelined him for the final regular-season contest. Despite the setback, he allowed only three sacks, though metrics from ESPN ranked him 57th in pass-block win rate and 40th in run-block win rate among qualifying guards.
