Texans teammates decorate P Shane Lechler's locker on 40th birthday

HOUSTON -- It’s not every day that a teammate turns 40, so punter Shane Lechler's specialist group with the Houston Texans made sure to let everyone know he was turning the big 4-0 on Sunday.

Long-snapper Jon Weeks and kickers Nick Novak and Ka'imi Fairbairn decorated Lechler's locker in streamers, banners and birthday signs.

Lechler’s wife got in touch with Weeks’ wife and gave the group all the supplies to complete the locker transformation.

“We had fun,” Weeks said. “I think we did a pretty good job. I was pretty impressed.
