Reports: Texans Nearly Hired Omar Khan To Be Their GM

Some noteworthy news that got lost in the shuffle of Wild Card weekend and the Pittsburgh Steelers’ early exit from the postseason. The Steelers nearly lost more than Sunday’s game to the Browns. According to multiple reports, they almost lost one of their top front office members. The only thing that saved them, apparently, was a power hungry man in Houston.

Multiple reports say Steelers’ VP of Football and Business Administration Omar Khan, better known as “the cap guy,” was in line to become the next GM of the Houston Texans. At the least, after a search firm came up with a list of five names, it came down to Khan or ESPN’s Louis Riddick as finalists for the job.
