The Texans have fired coach Lovie Smith after one season, according to a report from NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo.
The move comes with Houston concluding the 2022 season with a 3-13-1 record, which landed the Texans the No. 2 pick in the draft.
Smith had three seasons left on his contract.
Houston also fired David Culley last year after he had just one season at the helm, with the Texans going 4–13 under his watch.
Texans GM Nick Caserio has now hired and fired two coaches since being hired in January 2021, and will now presumably be tasked with a third coaching search.
