The Texans are hiring 49ers defensive coordinator DeMeco Ryans to be the franchise’s new coach on a six-year deal, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
Ryans steps into a Houston organization that finished this past season 3-13-1. The former star of the Texans defense as a player will now look to repair a team that hasn’t had a winning record since 2019 (10–6).
Houston fired coach Lovie Smith just hours after beating the Colts 32–31 to finish out the 2022 season. The win came at a price, as the Texans lost the No.
