Texans coach Bill O'Brien to call plays on offense in 2017

HOUSTON -- Texans head coach Bill O'Brien will take over the playcalling duties on offense next season as the team won't hire an offensive coordinator to replace George Godsey, sources confirmed to ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter on Wednesday.

On Monday, the Texans announced that they "mutually agreed to part ways" with Godsey after this three seasons as offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach under O'Brien. Sean Ryan will move from coaching the wide receivers to coaching the quarterbacks.

The news was first reported by the Houston Chronicle.

Godsey called plays for the Texans through the first three games before O'Brien took over after the Texans' 27-0 loss to the New England Patriots.
