Bill O'Brien 'looking forward to coming back' as Texans' head coach

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. -- Texans head coach Bill O'Brien reiterated Saturday night that he will not be leaving Houston during the offseason.

"I'll be back next season," he said after the Texans' 34-16 loss to the New England Patriots in the divisional round of the playoffs. "I'll be the Texans' head coach. I'll be back next season. Like I said, I have a five-year contract. This is year three."

O'Brien was addressing multiple reports speculating that he could be fired or choose to leave after the season, despite saying last Saturday that he would not leave.
