Moments after the Texans announced former 49ers defensive coordinator DeMeco Ryans would become the franchise’s next coach, a former Houston star chimed in on the team’s hiring.
JJ Watt, who spent 10 seasons with the Texans before playing his last two seasons with the Cardinals, was excited to see Ryans get the nod in Houston. Ryans and Watt were Texans teammates during the 2011 season.
“LET’S GOOOOOOO!!!!!! You want to reenergize and reignite the incredible Houston fan base, this is a hell of a start!! Cannot wait to see what Meco does. One of the best teammates & leaders I’ve ever been around.
