The Texans have fired coach and general manager Bill O'Brien, according to The Houston Chronicle's John McClain.
ESPN's Adam Schefter also reported the firing, adding that assistant Romeo Crennel will likely become Houston's interim head coach.
O'Brien has been on the hot seat following the Texans' 0–4 start to the 2020 season. As head coach and general manager, he controls the roster.
Over the offseason, the team changed their offensive operations when they gave offensive coordinator Tim Kelly play-calling duties. O'Brien had handled it for the past four seasons, but after Houston's first three losses, the team reconsidered the move.
