On Wednesday, the Houston Texans made it clear they needed to keep their kicker, John Christian Kaʻiminoeauloamekaʻikeokekumupaʻa "Kaʻimi" Fairbairn, in Houston in a Texans uniform.

Yes, that is his full name, and yes, I copied and pasted it from Google.

On Wednesday, it was announced that Fairbairn and the Texans would agree to a three-year deal, which would extend him, and would be worth $15.9 million.

Fairbairn was one of the better kickers in the league last year. He just battled with a few key injuries, which led to the Texans having to use an emergency kicker a few times. The Texans also signed some guys during the season, who ended up missing game-tying kicks, which helped show even more why they needed Fairbairn in Houston.

Believe it or not, this was one of the more crucial signings the Texans needed to make, and they got it done early.
