Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson reportedly recommended that his team interview San Francisco 49ers defensive coordinator Robert Saleh for the open head coaching position, but the Texans did not reach out to Saleh before he agreed to become the New York Jets' new head coach.
On Saturday, Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk reported the news about Watson, who also recommended the Texans request an interview with Kansas City Chiefs offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy.
Houston has put in a request but did not do so in a timely manner, and now the team must wait until Kansas City's playoff run is done to speak with him.
