Texans - Team History
Houston Texans, professional football team, which will begin play
in the National Football League (NFL) during the 2002 season. The
Houston, Texas, franchise will be a member of South Division of the
American Football Conference (AFC) and play its home games in Houston’s
new Reliant Stadium.
The NFL accepted Houston’s proposal for a
team after a competing bid from Los Angeles, California, fell apart
in 1999. The Texans fill the void left by the Houston Oilers, who
moved to Tennessee in 1997. The Texans are owned by businessman
Robert McNair, and the general manager is Charley Casserly. The
franchise selected its team name in September 2000. In early 2001
Houston hired Dom Capers, former defensive coordinator for the Jacksonville
Jaguars, as its first head coach. Capers was also the first head
coach of the Carolina Panthers, who joined the NFL in 1995.
<p>By not working out a new contract or franchising veteran cornerback Dunta Robinson, the Texans allowed the six-year starter to leave as an unrestricted free agent for Atlanta. Looking for a possible replacement on the current roster causes a lot of fans to panic, but not the coaches.</p>
<p>Without Robinson, Glover Quin, who enters his second season, is firmly entrenched as a starter on one side. Jacques Reeves, who played well in 2008 but was average last season after returning from a broken record, could return to the lineup.</p>
<p>Brice McCain, a sixth-round pick last season, was a pleasant surprise. Forced into action because of Robinson's holdout and Reeves' injury, McCain took advantage of his opportunity by showing the coaches he could cover.
On the second day of the NFL's free agent signing period, the Arizona Cardinals went the trade route to fill a big need. The Cardinals acquired safety Kerry Rhodes from the New York Jets on Saturday for a fourth-round pick in this year's draft and a seventh-rounder in 2011. Rhodes is expected to move into the starting spot opposite All-Pro Adrian Wilson that was vacated when Antrel Rolle, a...
The Atlanta Falcons have signed free-agent cornerback Dunta Robinson, the Houston Texans' career interceptions leader, to a six-year, US$57 million contract.
The Houston Texans have tendered offers to Pro Bowl middle linebacker DeMeco Ryans and six other restricted free agents. Ryans, the 2006 Defensive Rookie of Year, had 123 tackles and a sack last season. The other Texans offered deals Thursday were tight end Owen Daniels, strong safety Bernard Pollard, defensive end Tim Bulman, tackle Rashad Butler, running back Ryan Moats and guard Chris White.
How each of the 32 NFL teams are approaching Friday's opening of free agency with no salary cap: AFC BALTIMORE RAVENS Ravens don't intend to be thrifty. In quest to enhance roster, especially at wide receiver, Ravens expect to benefit from cost-cutting measures by other teams. "There will be some real good players that are going to get cut," general manager Ozzie Newsome said.
Cornerback Dunta Robinson is bidding the Houston Texans farewell, declaring himself a free agent. Robinson disclosed his plans Wednesday in e-mail to KRIV-TV of Houston and the Houston Chronicle. The Texans' first-round draft pick in 2004 out of South Carolina (10th overall) is the team's career leader in interceptions with 13.
A 25-year prison term has been ordered for a man over a 2007 robbery at the Houston-area home of Texans cornerback Dunta Robinson. Prosecutors in Fort Bend County say Roderick Darnell Johnson on Tuesday pleaded guilty to aggravated robbery. Investigators say Robinson was held at gunpoint during the September 2007 robbery at his residence in Missouri City.
PITTSBURGH - The Pittsburgh Steelers have hired Brandon Hunt to be their pro scouting director following the departure of Doug Whaley, who became the Buffalo Bills' assistant general manager.
Houston Texans owner Bob McNair watched with admiration as the New Orleans Saints celebrated their first Super Bowl victory. McNair is confident that Gary Kubiak will lead the Texans to one very soon. The Texans announced Wednesday that Kubiak has signed a contract extension that runs through the 2012 season, a vote of confidence after the team finished 9-7 -- the first winning record in the...
