It’s a new era of Houston Texans football.
The Texans have hired Rams passing game coordinator and tight ends coach Nick Caley as their new offensive coordinator after a week-long search. The former New England Patriots tight ends coach will now upgrade in place of Bobby Slowik, who was fired following last month’s divisional-round loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.
Caley, 42, has been tied to the job since the early stages of the coaching search. Before joining Los Angeles, he interviewed for the same position in 2023 before Texans coach DeMeco Ryans ultimately decided to hire Slowik from San Francisco.
A key element for Caley’s duties will be fixing C.J. Sroud, who took a step back from his rookie season to his second year after tossing 20 touchdowns and 12 interceptions.
Fans are pumped for a new stage of Caley calling the shots down in Houston. Here are some of the top reactions from Monday’s news.
