Texans fire head coach Bill O’Brien after 0-4 start, per reports
The Texans have fired head coach Bill O’Brien, according to multiple reports. O’Brien, the former quarterbacks coach and offensive coordinator for the Patriots, had been head coach in Houston since 2014.
The 50-year-old O’Brien had a regular-season record of 52-48 with the Texans, but a series of poor personnel choices in the offseason and an 0-4 start to 2020 left ownership with little choice but to move on.
O’Brien worked in New England from 2007 through 2011 in several capacities, including as offensive coordinator in his final season with the Patriots.
He spent two years at Penn State before moving on to become head coach in Houston.
