Feb 29, 2008 - 3:24 PM HOUSTON (Ticker) -- Wide receiver Andre Davis apparently will not be testing the free agent market this season.

According to a report posted on the Houston Chronicle's web site, Davis is set to sign a four-year, $16 million contract with the Texans.

The 28-year-old Davis made 33 catches for 583 yards and three touchdowns and also returned three kicks for TDs last season, his first with the Texans.

For his career, Davis has 137 catches for 2,198 yards and 17 touchdowns in parts of six seasons with the Texans, Buffalo Bills, New England Patriots and Cleveland Browns.
