Houston Texans have had a complete 180-degree change under special teams coordinator Brad Seely. A successful coach with plenty of accolades to highlight his success in the league, Seely has 30 seasons of experience coaching in the NFL, and three Super Bowl rings with the New England Patriots.
After having former special teams coordinators Bob Ligashesky and Larry Izzo under Bill O’Brien, the third time was the charm and Seely has played a successful role in turning the Texans special teams unit around this season.
Under Seely, the team showed no player was safe on the special teams after releasing both of their most recognized special teams’ contributors, defensive back Kurtis Drummond and seven-time Pro Bowler punter Shane Lechler in their cut down to their 53-man roster for the regular season.
