We’ve been wondering this for a while now. Where did Jack Easterby come from, who is a Jack Easterby, how does someone without a football background have such a grand influence on football decision, how did he take over the general manager role, why was DeAndre Hopkins traded, and what does the future hold for him as the Texans navigate their way to a new leadership group.
These questions were rhetorical. Never were any answers provided. These were despairs we flailed into our pillows before the nightmares devoured our brains. But now, thanks to Sports Illustrated, who has done diligent reporting, the curtain has been peeled back on the Jack Easterby failure, snake oil, and singular destruction he took to the Houston Texans, all in the name of his own power grab.
