Houston Texans offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik’s impressive work in his first year calling the shots didn’t just catch the attention of the hometown fans. Teams across the league looked in his direction as the answer to their head coaching vacancies, and it’s hard to blame them.
Slowik took an offense that wasn’t expected to be competitive, headlined by rookie quarterback C.J. Stroud , and helped fuel Houston to the top of the AFC South. Stroud was phenomenal , limiting turnovers while aggressively threatening defenses downfield and between the numbers.
The Texans were effective, fun to watch, and winning over the hearts of fans around the country. Slowik’s decision to stay in Houston – complete with a boost in pay – keeps the offense on the right track.
Receiver Nico Collins, who broke out in Slowik’s offense, reacted to the news that his coordinator chose the Texans over a promotion with another team.
“Time to reload! Time to pick up where we left off,” Collins said. “It’s definitely a blessing, great having everybody back, man. Great team, great people to be around.”
