HOUSTON TEXANS WEEKLY RELEASE

GAME 16

VS HOUSTON TEXANS VS. JACKSONVILLE JAGUARS - RELIANT STADIUM - HOUSTON, TEXAS - SUNday, JANUARY 2, 2011 - 3:15 P.M. CT

The Houston Texans (5-10) close out the 2010 season against the Jacksonville Jaguars (8-7) at Reliant Stadium on Sunday, Jan. 2 at 3:15 p.m. CT.

Though the Texans are not in playoff contention, the game still has playoff implications. A Jacksonville win coupled with an Indianapolis loss against Tennessee would give the Jaguars their first ever AFC South Division title and the re-maining playoff spot in the AFC. Houston has a chance to play spoiler and split the season series by avenging a loss in Jacksonville earlier this season.

Houston was on the wrong end of one of the NFL’s most miraculous endings this season in the first meeting between the two teams on Nov. 14. Texans CB Glover Quin batted down QB David Garrard’s Hail Mary pass into the arms of WR Mike Thomas as time expired to give the Jaguars a 31-24 win.

The Texans offense has put up some of the best numbers in the NFL this season, averaging 379.3 yards per game to rank fifth in the league. RB Arian Foster leads the league with 2,030 yards from scrimmage, the fourth-highest single-season total by an undrafted player in NFL history. Foster also leads the NFL with 1,436 yards rushing and could clinch the first-ever rushing title by a Texan with a solid perfor-mance Sunday.

Jaguars RB Maurice Jones-Drew still ranks fourth in the NFL with 1,324 yards rushing despite missing last week’s game against Washington. Jones-Drew leads the NFL’s No. 4 rushing offense, averaging 146.5 rushing yards per game.

While Foster has led the NFL in rushing since Week 1, QB Matt Schaub has engineered a surge in the Houston pass-ing game with a four consecutive 300-yard efforts. Schaub is fourth in the NFL with 4,117 passing yards and is just the 12th quarterback in NFL history to have back-to-back 4,000-yard passing seasons. Despite not having WR Andre Johnson in last week’s 24-23 loss at Denver, Schaub still threw for 310 yards thanks to a 115-yard effort from WR Jacoby Jones.

The Texans trail 8-9 in the all-time series against the Jag-uars but hold a 5-3 edge in Reliant Stadium. Four of the last five meetings between the two teams have been decided by a touchdown or less.

2010 HOUSTON TEXANS SCHEDULE


Gary Kubiak is the winningest head coach in Texans his-tory with 36 career victories in four-plus years, including the three best seasons in team history from 2007-09. One of Kubiak’s primary goals upon arriving in Houston was to create a home field advantage at Reliant Stadium, and he has made great strides in that direction. The Texans have posted a 23-16 (.590 winning pct.) home record since 2006.

Kubiak guided the Texans to a 9-7 record in 2009, highlighted by a season-ending four-game win streak to capture the franchise’s first winning season. Houston narrowly missed its first-ever playoff berth, losing a tie-breaker for the final spot on the last day of the season. The 2009 Texans set franchise records for total offense, scoring offense, total defense and scoring defense. A franchise-record five players earned trips to the Pro Bowl, led by Pro Bowl MVP Matt Schaub.

The 2008 Texans matched their record from the year be-fore, going 8-8 for a second straight year despite an 0-4 start in the aftermath of Hurricane Ike, which devastated much of Houston and southeast Texas. Houston became just the tenth team in NFL history to start a year 0-4 and fin-ish with a record at or above .500. Houston was one of 11 teams to go 8-4 or better over the last 12 games; and nine of those teams were in the playoffs. The offense enjoyed its most productive season to date, ranking third in the NFL and setting a franchise record with 6,113 total yards.

Year two for Kubiak saw the team achieve the best re-cord in franchise history, finishing 8-8. The Texans won three of their last four and five of their last seven to finish the season at .500. In addition, the Texans set a team mark with a 6-2 record at Reliant Stadium in 2007.

In his rookie season, Kubiak tripled the team’s win total of the previous year, guiding the club to a 6-10 record. The six victories included wins in three of the last five games of the season and the franchise’s first ever win against Indianapolis. All six wins came versus AFC op-ponents, giving the Texans their most wins against con-ference foes in team annals.

Now in his eighth year as head coach of the Jaguars, Jack Del Rio is one of just six current NFL head coaches who have been with his current team more than seven seasons. He ranks eighth among active coaches with a 65-62 regular season record and is one of nine current coaches with at least 60 career wins.

Now in his 25th year in the NFL and his 14th season in coaching, Del Rio was named the second head coach in Jaguars history on January 17, 2003. Over the 2003-09 sea-sons the Jacksonville defense ranks eighth in the NFL in yards allowed (311.9 per game) and sixth in rushing (102.9), while the offense ranks third in rushing yards (130.5) and fourth in fewest turnovers (161) under Del Rio. The Jaguars are one of only seven teams to rank in the top 13 in both offense and de-fense since 2003.

In 2009, Del Rio led one of the league’s youngest teams, with four rookies in full-time roles as starters, 32 new play-ers on the roster and a total of 16 rookies by season’s end. The team built a 7-5 record by early December and was in playoff contention until the final weekend of the regular season, finishing 7-9. Rookies combined to make 71 starts, the most in team history, and the team was penalized a league-low of 70 times, the fewest in franchise history.

The Jaguars posted an 11-5 record in 2007 to earn a sec-ond playoff berth in three years, in addition to claiming the franchise’s first playoff win since the 1999 season while becoming the first team in NFL history to win in Pittsburgh twice in one season. The offense ranked seventh in the league and scored a team-record 411 points.

In 2005, the Jaguars won eight of the last nine regular season games, including four straight on the road, en route to a 12-4 finish and a Wild Card playoff berth. The league’s sixth-ranked defense was sixth in points al-

lowed and had 19 defensive interceptions. On offense the team had a team-record and NFL-low six interceptions thrown. The unit ranked fifth in the league in time of pos-session and second in turn-overs.

HEAD COACH COMPARISON


GENERAL MANAGER RICK SMITHTEXANS COACHING STAFF

Rick Smith is in his fifth season as Texans general man-ager after being named to the post on June 5, 2006. The Texans have accumulated 36 wins since then, giving him the most wins for a general manager in Texans his-tory. The Texans have gotten better every season with Smith at the helm and posted their first win-ning season in 2009, going 9-7. Smith has built a team that has battled throughout the year as evidenced by a combined 14-8 re-cord in the final month of the season over the last four years. That record ranks fourth in the NFL and tops among teams in the AFC South. Houston had an NFL-worst .211 winning percentage in the last month of the season before his arrival.

Smith has assembled a front office staff that has the Texans pointed toward sustained success in the NFL and has established himself as a prominent voice around the league in his four years at the helm with the Texans. He was appointed to the NFL’s prestigious eight-man Compe-tition Committee by NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell on December 5, 2008 and was honored with the Tank Younger Award in 2008, presented annually by the Fritz Pollard Al-liance for outstanding work in an NFL front office. Smith was also an original member of the General Managers Ad-visory Committee that provides advice and other feedback to the NFL Football Operations department on the integrity of the game, expansion of technology and other ways to improve the game.

Smith’s main philosophy has been to build through the draft and supplement via free agency. Last season, 13 players who the Texans signed or acquired during Smith’s tenure started 10 or more games. In the final win of the season against the Patriots, 15 of Houston’s 22 starters had been with the Texans since his arrival in June 2006.

During the 2009 draft, Houston selected eight players, with four starting at least one game. First-round pick LB Brian Cushing was selected to the Pro Bowl and name Associated Press Defensive Rookie of the Year. Second-round pick DE Connor Barwin led all NFL rookie defensive ends with 4.5 sacks.

The Houston Texans made three additions to the offen-sive coaching staff in the offseason: Offensive Coordinator Rick Dennison, Quarterbacks Coach Greg Knapp and Of-fensive Assistant Marc Lubick.

The 51-year-old Dennison is in his 16th season in the NFL as a coach and his 25th year in the league overall. Den-nison has spent 24 years with the Denver Broncos, first as a player from 1982-90 and then as a coach from 1995-09, before being named the Texans’ offensive coordinator on January 11, 2010.

Dennison served as offensive coordinator in Denver from 2006-08 after his predecessor, Gary Kubiak, left Denver to become the head coach of the Texans. He coached the Broncos offensive line from 2001-05 and resumed that role in 2009. He also coached Denver’s special teams from 1997-2000 and was an offensive assistant from 1995-96.

Knapp is also in his 16th season in the NFL as a coach, including the last nine seasons as an offensive coordina-tor. Overall, Knapp is entering his 25th year in coaching.

Knapp coached Texans QB Matt Schaub in Atlanta from 2004-06 as the offensive coordinator of the Falcons.

Knapp spent last season as the offensive coordinator for the Seattle Seahawks and guided an attack that averaged 316.8 yards per game, including 218.9 per game through the air.

Lubick is in his third season in the NFL as a coach or scouting assistant. He worked as Colorado State’s tight ends coach and recruiting coordinator in 2009. He worked as the Rams wide receivers coach from 2005-07.

TEXANS WIRE

DREESSEN HONORED WITH ED BLOCK COURAGE AWARD

TE Joel Dreessen was selected by teammates as the 2010 Ed Block Courage Award winner. Recipients are selected by a vote of their teammates to recognize extra efforts both on and off the field and their ability to overcome great adversity. He will be recognized at the 33rd annual Ed Block Courage Awards on March 8,

2011, in Baltimore, Md. Dreessen suffered a labrum and rotator cuff tear in his

right shoulder while taking over starting duties at tight end in the 2009 season following a season-ending injury to starter Owen Daniels. Determined to not miss any time, Dreessen played through pain without missing a game or a practice and finished with then-career highs of 26 re-ceptions for 320 yards and a touchdown.

Ten days after the season ended, Dreessen underwent surgery to repair the injuries. He endured six months of grueling rehab and made it back to the team for the first day of the 2010 training camp.

He has bounced back in 2010, setting career highs with 34 receptions for 468 yards and four touchdowns in nine starts through 15 games.

Since 1984, the Ed Block Courage Award annually honors one player from every NFL team who exemplifies commit-ment to the principles of sportsmanship and courage. The Ed Block Courage Award has become one of the most prestigious awards a player can receive because no other national football award is chosen solely by a vote of his peers.

Winners travel to Baltimore to receive their trophy at a gala in their honor and to visit the Ed Block Courage House. The Courage House is a facility that provides sup-port and quality care for abused children and their families in the community. Block was the longtime head athletic trainer for the old Baltimore Colts, who in addition to be-ing a pioneer in athletic training, was passionate about causes helping children.

WAITING FOR THE TAPTexans WR Andre Johnson has embod-

ied toughness this season, going on to play in 10 games with a severely sprained ankle suffered against Washington in Week 2. Johnson ranks among the NFL leaders with 86 receptions for 1,216 yards despite the injury, which has slowed the All-Pro receiver down.

Playing through the injury and the pain caught up with Johnson last week and he was deactivated at Denver. Head coach Gary Kubiak was unsure if Johnson will be able to play the season finale against Jacksonville when asked by reporters on Monday.

“I hope he taps me on the shoulder and says he’s ready to go,” Kubiak said. “He won’t practice. He will not prac-tice Wednesday and Thursday. If he tells me Friday that he

feels good enough to play, then he’s going to play. “Like I said, he was not ready to go (at Denver). It’s kind

of been every week. We get to Friday or Saturday and he says, ‘I’ll be fine. I’ll take a shot and I’ll go.’ You could tell this week it wasn’t the same. We’ll have to wait and see how it goes.”

SHARPTON OUT FOR FINALERookie fourth-round draft pick LB Dar-

ryl Sharpton has been ruled out for the season finale against Jacksonville, head coach Gary Kubiak told reporters on Monday.

“He will not play this week,” Kubiak said. “He subluxed his shoulder and could possibly be facing surgery and he

played the whole damn game with it, so that tells you what kind of guy he is. We knew about it at halftime, he refused to come out. He played the whole second half with it.”

The injury came in Sharpton’s first start at Mike (middle) linebacker. He finished the game with five tackles, includ-ing one for a loss.

Sharpton earned praise in the preseason for his defen-sive aptitude and ability to play multiple linebacker posi-tions. That acumen started to shine through as the season progressed and Sharpton started six games at weakside linebacker before earning his first start in the middle last week.

JONES RISES TO THE CHALLENGEWR Jacoby Jones’ talent is undeni-

able and has been apparent in the return game throughout his career.

However, his contributions on offense have been a bit slower developing until a breakout performance last week at Denver. Starting for injured WR Andre Johnson, Jones caught five passes for

a career-high 115 yards against the Broncos, including 92 yards in the first half. He also made the longest recep-tion of his career on Houston’s second touchdown of the game, a 47-yarder, and accounted for 81 of the team’s 86-yard drive.

The inspired performance may have had something to do with head coach Gary Kubiak.

“I challenged him the night before the game and told him he was going to get a chance to start for the second time this year,” Kubiak said. “But it’s time for him to grow up and prove that he can do that. He played pretty darn good yesterday. He’s got a couple plays there, one in the fourth quarter I can think of, that I’d like to see him make, that can be a big difference in a game. But he took a step forward and made some guys miss after catching the ball, which should be a big strength of his game. To come out statisti-cally the way he did, that’s a step in the right direction. But a very talented young man.”

With Johnson’s status for Sunday in question, Jones could be starting against the Jaguars.

SCORING

The Jacksonville Jaguars scored on a deflected 50-yard pass as time expired to beat the Texans at EverBank Field, sending Houston to last place in the AFC South with a 4-5 record.

With three seconds remaining in a tied game, Jaguars QB David Garrard heaved a Hail Mary pass to the left side of the end zone. Texans CB Glover Quin jumped up and batted the ball out of the end zone, and it went directly into WR Mike Thomas’ hands at the goal line to give the Jaguars a stunning 31-24 victory.

The Texans put up 395 yards of offense in the game, but gave up 491 yards of offense to Jacksonville. The Jaguars more than doubled the Texans’ rushing total, outgaining them 165-81, and controlled the ball for 35:23.

Jacksonville led 17-3 at halftime behind two rushing touch-downs from RB Maurice Jones-Drew, who finished with 100 yards on 24 carries.

The Texans rallied with 14 unanswered points in the third quarter, when they outgained the Jaguars 170-78. RB Arian Foster scored on a one-yard run on the opening drive of the second half, and Andre Johnson caught a nine-yard touch-down pass on the Texans’ next possession. Johnson had nine catches for 146 yards, his third 100-yard game in four weeks.

After Josh Scobee missed a 39-yard field goal at the begin-ning of the fourth quarter, TE Zach Miller beat Quin for a 52-yard touchdown to put the Jaguars up 24-17 with 6:57 left.

The Texans answered with a six-play, 80-yard drive that ended with an 18-yard touchdown catch by Kevin Walter . The pass initially was ruled incomplete, but the ruling was overturned after a challenge by Texans head coach Gary Kubiak. It was the Texans’ third 80-yard scoring drive in the second half, and it tied the game at 24 with 4:19 left to play.

TEXANS INDIVIDUAL STATISTICS


(on DE Antonio Smith saying there was confusion on defense in the second half) “We suited seven defensive linemen yesterday for maybe the only game since I’ve been here that we’ve tried that. We did that yesterday and then we had two guys get nicked up on us. (DT Shaun) Cody got nicked up on us. (DT) Earl Mitchell got nicked up on us. We’re trying to rotate guys because of the altitude and trying to keep guys fresh, so we got ourselves into a pickle so to speak. It was our fault as coaches. We got out of whack with some substitutions and we had to waste a time-out one time and another time got the wrong personnel on the field. He’s right. There was some confusion and it stems from the number issue we had at the defensive line position. Those things happen. You’ve got to work through them and find a way to work through them but you don’t want them to cost you timeouts. That’s what happened.”

(on if he wishes he would’ve used RB Arian Foster more in the second half yesterday) “I liked what we did. We moved the ball very well other than the first two drives to start the game, where we were very committed to the run. We were six runs to one pass and it was not good. It was two three-and-outs. I thought we moved the ball extremely well. We got ourselves in a sec-ond and 20 situation the second time we touched the ball in the third quarter. Arian touched the ball on some screens. We had a screen that was almost a 35- or 40-yard play. I consider that him touching the ball. To be honest with you, I didn’t like the way we ran the ball yesterday. We can run the ball a lot better. We can play a lot better in the backfield than we played yesterday. We moved the football. The only thing we needed to do is finish a couple drives in the second half. I didn’t have a problem with what we were doing.”

(on if there is any update on WR Andre Johnson and if he’ll play on Sunday against Jacksonville) “I hope he taps me on the shoulder and says he’s ready to go. He won’t practice. He will not practice Wednesday and Thursday. If he tells me Friday that he feels good enough to play, then he’s going to play. Like I said, he was not ready to go. It’s kind of been every week. We get to Friday or Saturday and he says, ‘I’ll be fine. I’ll take a shot and I’ll go.’ You could tell this week it wasn’t the same. We’ll have to wait and see how it goes.”

(on QB Matt Schaub saying they knew all week that he wasn’t going to play) “Maybe Matt knew that. He normally taps me on the shoulder and says, ‘I’m okay,’ so I was waiting on it. It didn’t happen.”

(on how bad he feels about how this season has played out)“I’m very disappointed. Words can’t describe how I feel. I told you guys before. I told you we had a good football team coming out of camp. We had a lot of reasons to be very optimistic. We had some issues early in the season and weathered the storm on missing some key players. We weathered the storm very, very well. Bottom line is we’ve lost five or six football games that we could’ve easily won and that’s the difference in having a great season and having the season we’re having right now. I’m ex-tremely disappointed from that standpoint.”

(on what the excuse is this week for mistakes on defense) “We

didn’t stop them one time in the second half. The kid (QB Tim Tebow) made a lot of great plays. I’m not here to make excuses. I’ll answer your questions but I’m not making excuses. We lost contain on the scramble for a touchdown. That’s a fact. That’s not an excuse. We didn’t stop big plays. We gave up four plays and an 80-yard drive to start the second half. The next two plays, I think they went another 60. When you give up big plays in this business, you’re going to struggle to win. That’s what we did and we were in zone coverages when we gave up those big plays.”

(on LB Brian Cushing struggling playing in space this season) “Well we need him to do everything. When he’s not making great plays and is not factoring in the football game 10, 12, 14 tackles and causing fumbles, then good things aren’t happening for us defensively. He’s beat up like everybody else, but that’s part of the game at this point. He does some good things in the game but he also made some big mistakes in the game. It’s kind of the same issue with everybody on that side of the ball and that’s the reason we end up giving up 24 points in the second half.”

(on CB Kareem Jackson getting beat on the post by WR Jabar Gaffney) “We’re in quarters. He’s got some safety help initially. It was play-action pass so the safety, I think it was (FS) Troy (No-lan), squatted a little bit. He loses his help right there. He’s got to play the post. He got his eyes on the backfield and got outrun. No excuse. That’s his play to make.”

(on how worried he is about his job as well as his coaches and players jobs) “Nothing’s changed for me. I wouldn’t answer the question any differently. I’m concerned about trying to get ready to win a football game. I would answer it the same way.”

(on if there is anything he would like to change about this sea-son or do differently) “We came out of camp good. We talked about being a faster starting football team going into this season. We had been a poor starting football team. We got off to a very good start. We started 2-0 so if you asked me about that, things were good at that point. If I could change one thing, I’d like (No.) 59 (LB DeMeco Ryans) to still be playing throughout the course of the season. That’s been a big, big loss. We lost our leader and our quarterback on defense from the day we left the field 4-2. So that’s been very, very difficult. Any time you’re not successful, you go back and there are a lot of things you’d change and do differently. I’m sure when I go back and take a look over it again, which I’ve taken many looks over, I’m sure I’ll come up with a lot of things that I’d like to change. The bottom line is we lost too many close football games and haven’t made plays in some criti-cal times. We’re all responsible for that. That’s me making calls, players making plays. That’s the case.”

(on people saying that he takes the blame for everyone else when the play calls are bad) “What I do as a coordinator, is I do the game plans. I go out there to cal the game, but I take input from everybody. I take input from (offensive line coach) John Benton, Rico (offensive coordinator Rick Dennison) and I work together. I take input from all of the coaches. I think call-ing games in this league is about everybody putting their brains together. It really doesn’t matter who actually says, ‘okay, this is the play we’re going to run.’ I think we all come to that conclu-

GARY KUBIAK TRANSCRIPT MONDAY, DECEMBER 27, 2010


sion and what we want to do in situations and we go forward with that. I think being good and to me, there’s been a lot of good things on offense, comes from a lot of guys working together. It’s not just about the guy who sends the play in.” (on if he still feels like the team is close to being good despite losing eight-of-nine games, with many that could have gone either way) “I don’t have any doubt. But getting close doesn’t matter in this business. You’ve got to win those games. There has been at least five or six (close games); I can go through each one of them but we’ve had opportunities to make a play here or there that could’ve won football games this year. I’ve told y’all all along, the key is getting yourself to be able to play in games like that every week, and we’re playing in them but we’re not winning them. That’s what’s very, very disappointing. You have to learn to make those plays. If you want to be a great team, you’ve got to make those plays in crunch time. It’s something we’ve really struggled with.”

(on if it is cutting it too close that the offense has to be perfect or is on mistake away from winning late in games) “I don’t think it’s one mistake. Don’t let me sit here and say it’s that one. I think there’s a series of things that happen throughout the course of the game to put you in those situations. But usually in the fourth quarter there’s four, five, six plays that is a difference in the football game and you got to go make three or four of them. You’ve got to make more than your opponent and we obviously haven’t been doing that. It’s like yesterday, look at the last play of the game for us. What do you pin that on? You know, a ball got tipped. We’re fixing to make a great play and win a game and ev-erybody’s going to be happy and everything is going to be good, but the ball got tipped and it got picked. Somehow, they found a way to make that play and we didn’t. It’s not like you go blame the quarterback or blame an offensive lineman for not getting the guy’s hands down. I mean, it happened. You got to keep playing so these things don’t happen to you. To me, it’s just a mentality of working through things and having the mentality that you’re going to find a way to win in those situations.”

(on if he is surprised that he has not found a way to turn things around on defense, like the team did in 2009) “That’s a great point. You’re right. We struggled last year early and we found our way out of it but along the way, as we were working our way out of it and starting to play great defense we didn’t have some of the issues we had this year. We struggled and then we started having big issues with guys going out and stuff; and that’s not an excuse. Those things made things harder and harder for us to bail our way out of it. Last year, we stayed pretty darn healthy on that side of the football. So it made it more difficult, but it’s still not acceptable from a standpoint of not finding a way to get it somewhat settled down and corrected.”

(on why WR Jacoby Jones had a breakout performance) “I chal-lenged him the night before the game and told him he was going to get a chance to start for the second time this year. I think his first start, he lasted a quarter and hurt his calf, I think at Oakland, if I’m right. But it’s time for him to grow up and prove that he can do that. He played pretty darn good yesterday. He’s got a couple plays there, one in the fourth quarter I can think of, that I’d like to

see him make, that can be a big difference in a game. But he took a step forward and made some guys miss after catching the ball, which should be a big strength of his game. To come out statisti-cally the way he did, that’s a step in the right direction. But a very talented young man.”

(on if having DT Damione Lewis at the start of the season would have allowed assistant head coach/defensive line coach Bill Kollar to do things differently on the defensive line) “Well, we had the guy we thought was going to be that person for us when we went with Frank (Okam) coming out of training camp, but that didn’t work out. (DT) Damione (Lewis) has been a pleasant sur-prise. I mean, he’s played nine or 10 years in this league and he’s brought a nice presence to our room and what it means to be a pro and how important this job is to you and how quick it can go away. I’ve been very impressed with the way he’s played. He’s done a good job.”

(on how rookie LB Darryl Sharpton graded out against the Bron-cos and his injury status) “He struggled a little bit, but it sure as heck wasn’t effort. All the sudden you go from playing well at Will (weakside linebacker) and you’re doing a good job. We wanted to put a little more on his plate, put him at Mike (middle lineback-er), let him run the defense, so to speak. So, from that standpoint, he had some mistakes that took him back a little bit. But nothing to do with effort. He was exceptional in his effort in the game.

“He actually is done for the year. He will not play this week. He subluxed his shoulder and could possibly be facing surgery and he played the whole damn game with it, so that tells you what kind of guy he is. We knew about it at halftime, he refused to come out. He played the whole second half with it.”

(on the exact injury to LB Darryl Sharpton) “He subluxed it, it popped out. It’s got to be fixed.”

(on other injuries from the Denver game) “(CB Sherrick) McMa-nis got a pretty good hamstring (injury), so he probably won’t be available either. Other than that, we’ll see. (NT) Shaun Cody is beat up. (DT) Earl Mitchell got an ankle (injury). So those are the four right now.”

(on how much it hurts him that some fans are planning to dem-onstrate their discontent with the season) “It’s part of my job and I understand that. I came here to win games and do a job to win games and that’s what Bob (McNair) pays me to do. It’s not a lack of effort and work, and it won’t be this week, neither. So, I’m okay with all that.”

(on the calls that have gone against him this season) “We had a tough one yesterday. I think the second and 15, when they called (CB) Jason (Allen) for, I think it was for illegal contact, or something that gave them a free first down. It was probably the toughest one for us to deal with in the game. I thought, maybe they were moving late in the game. But it’s like I tell you all the time, good teams find a way to play through calls that don’t go your way. So we got to do a better job of playing through them.”

SCORING

Houston squandered a 17-0 halftime lead in a 24-23 loss to the Broncos at INVESCO Field at Mile High.

This defeat came after QB Matt Schaub’s pass was tipped at the line of scrimmage and intercepted deep in Broncos terri-tory with 1:12 left to play. Broncos rookie QB Tim Tebow had scored the go-ahead touchdown on a six-yard run with 3:02 remaining, giving Denver its first lead of the entire game.

The Broncos scored every time they got the ball in the sec-ond half, except for their final drive when they knelt out the clock. The Texans’ only points of the second half came on field goals of 54 and 57 yards by K Neil Rackers .

Schaub was 23-of-33 passing for 310 yards and a touch-down. WR Jacoby Jones had a career-high 115 yards starting in place of injured WR Andre Johnson, and TE Owen Daniels had eight catches and a touchdown. RB Arian Foster rushed for 91 yards and a score and caught four passes for 44 yards.

The Texans took a 7-0 lead late in the first quarter with Fos-ter’s three-yard touchdown, which capped a 91-yard scoring drive. Early in the second quarter, Daniels caught a three-yard touchdown pass to make it 14-0. The Texans tacked on a 34-yard field goal by Rackers in the final minute of the first half.

The Broncos capped a four-play, 80-yard drive with a six-yard touchdown run by Correll Buckhalter to start the sec-ond half. The teams traded field goals before Rackers made a career-long 57-yard field goal with 2:34 left in the third quarter for a comfortable 23-10 lead.

On the Broncos’ next drive in the fourth quarter, Tebow found Buckhalter for a 23-yard touchdown pass on third-and-14. The Texans were unable to get past midfield on the ensuing possession, punting the ball away with 7:42 remain-ing. Tebow marched his team 76 yards and ended the drive with a the game-winning score.

The Texans rank fifth in the NFL in total offense, averag-ing 379.3 net yards of offense per game. A majority of that yardage comes after halftime as the Texans rank 26th in the NFL in first half offensive production, averaging 150.6 yards per first half.

However, the Texans rank first in second half offensive production, averaging 228.7 yards. The 78.1-yard improve-ment in average after halftime is tops in the NFL and the reason why the Texans rank fifth overall in total offense.

HOUSTON’S PROLIFIC PASSING ATTACK

Houston is the only NFL team that can say it has three 1,000-yard rushers on its active roster and one of six NFL teams that can tout at least two 1,000-yard rushers on its active roster. RB Steve Slaton rushed for 1,282 yards as a rookie in 2008 and RB Derrick Ward rushed for 1,025 yards for the New York Giants, also in 2008. RB Arian Foster has joined the duo this season with 1,436 yards rushing.

RB Arian Foster and WR Andre John-son have formed the NFL’s top rushing-receiving duo this season despite John-son missing two games due to injury.

Johnson and Foster have combined for 2,652 scrimmage yards, based on Fos-ter’s rushing (1,436 yards) and Johnson’s receiving (1,216 yards). No other pair has better numbers and only five other duos in the NFL have both a receiver and rush-er with more than 1,000 yards apiece.

Johnson and Foster have accounted for 3,356 yards from scrimmage this season when factoring in all their rushing and

receiving yards, which accounts for 59 percent of Hous-ton’s offense.

2010 ACTIVE ROSTER FACTS AND FIGURES

Houston Texans owner Bob McNair has built an organi-zational infrastructure that has helped place his franchise among the world’s most valuable sports franchises. The Texans rank tenth on Forbes’ 2010 list of the 10 Most Valu-able Teams In Sports with an estimated worth of $1.15 bil-lion. Houston ranks sixth in the NFL in value, according to the list.

Perhaps most impressive is the fact that the Texans are the only team on the list founded in the 21st century.

TEXANS SHOWING THEIR VALUE

Houston has two coaches remaining from the inaugural season. Running backs coach Chick Harris and special teams coordinator Joe Marciano are the lone holdovers from the 2002 staff and have been present for all 178 pre-season and regular season Texans games.

THE ORIGINAL TEXANS

With the loss of the last original Texan, K Kris Brown, WR Andre Johnson has assumed the role of elder statesman for the Texans franchise.

Johnson, the team’s first-round draft pick and third over-all selection in the 2003 NFL Draft, is the only Texan who played for the team prior to the 2006 season, prior to head coach Gary Kubiak’s tenure in Houston. He is currently second on the all-time games played list for the Texans with 115 and is just the third player to play eight seasons with the team in 2010.

DRE CLAIMS SENIORITY


GARY KUBIAK NOTES

The Texans have outrushed their opponents 40 times since Gary Kubiak took over as head coach in 2006, and the Texans are 28-12 in those games, including 4-4 this year. Houston outrushed Indianapolis 257-44 in the 2010 season opener, the largest differential in rushing yards against an opponent in the Kubiak Era.

OUT-RUSHING TO JUDGEMENT

One of head coach Gary Kubiak’s themes with his team has been the importance of winning the turnover battle. Since 2006 under Kubiak, the Texans have won the turn-over battle 26 times. Houston is 21-5 in those games.

Houston had a minus-one turnover ratio in 2009, giv-ing the ball away 28 times and forcing 27 turnovers. This year, the Texans have a minus-two turnover ratio with 16 takeaways and 18 turnovers. The Texans are 3-2 this year when winning the turnover battle.

GARY KUBIAK NOTES

When head coach Gary Kubiak was hired in 2006, he brought with him an offensive philosophy based on a strong running game and a precision passing attack.

Since 2006, the Texans have the third-most accurate passing offense in the NFL. Texans quarterbacks have combined to complete 66.0 percent of their passes.

TEXANS ON THE MARK

The improved pass protection of the offensive line has been a key reason the Houston passing attack has been one of the most dangerous in the NFL under head coach Gary Kubiak over the last four seasons.

Since 2007, Texans quarterbacks have been sacked 111 times on 2,340 pass plays, or a mere 4.74 percent of the time. That sack percentage is the fifth-best in the NFL over the last four years.

IMPROVED PASS PROTECTION

There certainly is no lack of NFL experience on the Tex-ans’ sidelines. Head coach Gary Kubiak’s coaching staff consists of nine former players with a combined total of 71 seasons played in the NFL. The group is also one of eight NFL teams with a member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame (Offensive Assistant Bruce Matthews) on staff. No other staff has as much NFL playing experience than the Texans:

WEALTH OF EXPERIENCE

Gary Kubiak played nine seasons in the NFL for the Den-ver Broncos and has surrounded himself with a staff that has similar playing backgrounds.


TEXANS OFFENSIVE OVERVIEW

The Texans are ranked third in the AFC and fifth in the NFL in total offense, averaging 379.3 yards per game. Houston’s pass-ing game has increased its output in the last several games and now ranks sixth in the NFL with 259.4 yards per game. The Tex-ans also rank 10th in the NFL with 119.9 rushing yards per game and join only the Philadelphia Eagles and New York Giants as teams with a run and pass games ranked in the top 10.

Houston emphasized improvement in the run game following the 2009 season and have come through in 2010. Houston has rushed for more than 200 yards in a game twice this season, something it had done only once in the eight seasons prior. In addition, the offense set mid-season franchise rushing records and currently has 1,798 yards on 386 carries (4.7 average) and 17 touchdowns. The Texans are 87 yards shy of setting a single-season team rushing record behind RB Arian Foster’s league-leading performance.

Foster has put up MVP-like numbers in 2010, and leads the NFL in nearly every statistical area for running backs with 1,436 rushing yards, 2,030 total yards from scrimmage, 115 first downs gained, 14 rushing touchdowns and 16 total touchdowns. Foster set the franchise’s single-season rushing record (formerly held by Steve Slaton, 1,282 yards in 2008) and single-season scrim-mage yards record (formerly held by Domanick Williams, 1,776 in 2004). He set a single-game rushing record with 231 rush-ing yards on Kickoff Weekend against the Colts, after which he was named AFC Offensive Player of the Week and FedEx Ground Player of the Week.

Eighth-year veteran WR Andre Johnson has surpassed the 1,000-yard mark receiving for the third straight year and fifth time in his career. He leads the team with 86 receptions and 1,216 receiving yards despite missing two games. He is the only receiver in NFL history to record at least 60 receptions in each of his first eight seasons and the sixth-fastest receiver to 9,000 yards, doing so in his 114th career game.

The team set a franchise record with 468 net passing yards in a Week 2 overtime win at Washington. QB Matt Schaub completed 38-of-52 passes for 497 yards, the 12th-highest total in NFL history, and three touchdowns in the win. The Texans rolled up 526 yards of total offense in the game, the second-most in team history, and Johnson and Kevin Walter both had more than 10 catches for more than 100 yards in the game, a first in team history.

The offensive line has paved the way for Foster and the unit’s success this season. RT Eric Winston, who has anchored the offensive line with 70 consecutive starts, LT Duane Brown, free agent signee LG Wade Smith, C Chris Myers, RG Mike Brisiel, and veteran FB Vonta Leach have developed into a formidable unit, pushing the limits of some of the NFL’s best defenses.

Johnson went over the 9,000-yard mark for his career in Week 14 against Baltimore and caught his 600th career reception against Washington in Week 2. He became the third-fastest player in NFL history to reach 600 receptions, doing it in his 104th career game.

TE Joel Dreessen has set career highs with 34 receptions for 458 yards and four touchdowns. WR Jacoby Jones (46 recep-tions) has also set a career high this season for receptions.

OFFENSIVE OVERVIEW

QUARTERBACKSThe Texans offense lies in the capable hands of 2010 Pro

Bowl MVP Matt Schaub. Schaub ranks fourth in the NFL in attempts, third in completions and is fourth in passing yards. All totaled, Schaub has completed 347-of-552 passes (62.9 percent) for 4,117 yards, 23 touchdowns and 12 interceptions with a 90.4 passer rating.

Schaub is just the 12th quarterback in NFL history to record back-to-back 4,000-yard passing seasons (4,770 in 2009) and is on the verge of becoming the sixth NFL quarterback in NFL history to throw for more than 9,000 yards over the course of two seasons. He became the franchise’s all-time winningest quarterback with 24 victories as a starter in the Week 12 win against Tennessee and set the franchise’s career passing mark with a 393-yard effort against Baltimore in Week 14 that ran his passing total as a Texan to 13,536 yards.

In Week 16 at Denver, Schaub threw for 310 yards, marking his fourth straight game with 300 or more passing yards, and eclipsed the 15,000-yard mark for his career. Schaub threw for a team-record 497 yards on 38-of-52 passing in Week 2 at Washington to help the Texans to the franchise’s first over-time win. It was the 12th-highest passing total in NFL history.

The seventh-year signal caller has also led his team back from a pair of double-digit fourth quarter deficits. He led the team back from 10 points down at Washington in Week 2 and again in Week 6 against Kansas City.

He posted elite numbers in 2009, his first season starting all 16 games as a pro. He ranked among the league’s top five passers in six categories and his 4,770 passing yards not only led the league, but were also the sixth-most in NFL history. Schaub also led the league in attempts (583) and comple-tions (396). His 67.9 completion percentage was fourth in the league, and he ranked fifth in yards per attempt (8.18) and passing touchdowns (29). His 98.6 passer rating ranked sev-enth.

Schaub was the starting quarterback for the AFC in the 2010 Pro Bowl and earned Most Valuable Player honors after set-ting the Pro Bowl record with a passer rating of 151.3, throw-ing for 189 yards and two touchdowns.

In four seasons as the Texans starter, Schaub has thrown for 13,536 yards with a team-record 73 touchdowns and 44 interceptions. Schaub has posted a quarterback rating of 93.6 since joining the team, which is by far the highest in franchise history among quarterbacks with at least 200 pass attempts.

Dan Orlovsky won the backup job in the 2010 preseason. Orlovsky signed with the Texans during the opening weekend of free agency following the 2008 season. He started seven games in 2008 for the Detroit Lions, completing 143-of-255 passes for 1,616 yards with eight touchdowns and eight in-terceptions.

Former Heisman Trophy winner and fifth-year veteran Matt Leinart signed with the Texans following the 2010 preseason. Leinart started 17 times and played in 29 games in his four

OFFENSE POSITION-BY-POSITION



years in Arizona, throwing for 3,893 yards and 14 touch-downs. He has earned praise from head coach Gary Kubiak for his grasp on the offense and ability to run it if called upon.

RUNNING BACKSSecond-year RB Arian Foster, who came on strong late

in 2009, burst onto the NFL rushing scene with the greatest rushing performance in Texans history in the season opener against the Colts with 231 yards on 33 carries and three rush-ing touchdowns. Foster’s breakout day marked the second-best season-opening rushing performance in NFL history (O.J. Simpson, 250 yards in 1973).

He has not looked back since, leading virtually every statis-tical category, setting several franchise marks along the way.

Foster is having one of the greatest seasons by an undrafted running back in NFL history. He leads the NFL with 1,436 yards rushing on 296 carries (4.7 average), 14 rushing touchdowns, 16 total touchdowns, 2,030 yards from scrimmage and 115 first downs gained. He has proven to be one of the best re-ceiving backs in the NFL this season, ranking second on the team with 64 receptions for 594 yards and two touchdowns. Priest Holmes is the only undrafted running back to produce more yards in a season than Foster this season.

Foster is tied for the lead among NFL running backs with 20 receptions on third down and has seven 100-yard rushing performances this season. He also leads all running backs with 594 receiving yards and has scored multiple touch-downs in six games.

Foster spent the first 10 weeks of 2009 on the Texans’ prac-tice squad but came on strong once he was elevated to the active roster, finishing fourth on the squad with 256 yards rushing.

The Texans bolstered their backfield with the addition of vet-eran RB Derrick Ward immediately following the preseason. Ward has consistently spelled Foster and ranks second on the team with 252 yards rushing on 46 carries (5.5 average).

Ward led the New York Giants in with 1,409 combined yards in 2008, rushing for 1,025 yards (5.6 average) and catching 41 passes for 384 yards. He spent the 2009 season with Tampa Bay.

Since signing with the Texans, Ward has experienced a resurgence, scoring touchdowns in three straight games for the first time in his career earlier in the season, while also serving as a veteran mentor to Foster. In Week 4 at Oakland, Ward rushed for 80 yards on 12 carries, including a 33-yard touchdown run in the first quarter for his first points as a Texan.

RB Steve Slaton, who led the team in rushing in 2008 and 2009, is third on the team with 93 yards rushing. Slaton has served as the team’s kickoff returner for most of the season and leads the team with 682 yards on 35 returns.

FB Vonta Leach has played in all 74 games he’s been with the Texans since joining the team mid-way through the 2006 season and has developed a reputation as one of the best blocking backs in the NFL. Head coach Gary Kubiak called Leach’s performance in the 2010 season opener the best he’d seen from the seventh-year vet as he helped clear the way

for Foster’s record day. Leach has also proven to be a reliable receiver out of the backfield with 76 career receptions for 537 yards and four touchdowns.

WIDE RECEIVERSThe Texans receiving corps, led by All-Pro Andre Johnson,

continues to be one of the most dangerous groups in the NFL. Johnson has continued his ascent up the NFL’s all-time re-ceiving list and is tied for fourth in the NFL with 86 receptions and is fourth with 1,216 yards. Johnson also leads the team with eight touchdown receptions despite missing two games this season due to injury.

Johnson became the only player in NFL history to record at least 60 receptions in each of his first eight seasons against Tennessee in Week 12 and he went over the 1,000-yard mark in a season for the third consecutive year and fifth time in his career with a 149-yard effort against Philadelphia on De-cember 2.

He became the sixth-fastest man in NFL history to reach the 9,000-receiving yard mark, doing so in his 114th career game against Baltimore in Week 14.

Two of his touchdown catches came when the Texans needed it most, forcing overtime in Week 2 against Washing-ton and snaring the game-winning score against Kansas City in Week 6 with 28 seconds remaining in the game. Johnson tied a team record with 12 receptions against Washington and had 158 yards receiving, 34 of which came on the game-tying score.

Johnson led the league in receiving yards for the second consecutive year in 2009 with 1,569 and caught a career-high nine touchdown passes. Johnson has 673 career receptions for 9,164 yards and 50 touchdowns. Since 2006, Johnson has been the most productive receiver in the NFL, averaging 90.8 yards per game.

Kevin Walter starts opposite Johnson for the fourth straight year and ranks third on the team with 48 receptions for 567 yards and is second on the team with five touchdown catch-es. In 2009, Walter caught 53 passes for 611 yards and two touchdowns. Since joining the Texans in 2006, Walter has caught 238 passes for 2,969 yards and 20 touchdowns, the third-most in Texans history.

Fourth-year pro Jacoby Jones has become more involved in the offense in 2010, adding to his versatility as a returner on special teams. He has set a career high with 46 receptions, totaling 492 yards and three touchdowns despite missing Week 5 with a calf injury. He posted his first career 100-yard game in Week 16 at Denver, totaling 115 yards on five recep-tions.

Jones hauled in six passes against Washington in Week 2, including a crucial third down conversion in overtime. He caught a 27 passes for 437 yards and six touchdown catches in 2009. In four seasons, Jones has caught 91 passes for 1,140 yards and nine touchdowns.

Rookie Derrick Townsel was signed to the active roster on Dec. 15 and made his professional debut on kickoff coverage in Week 16 at Denver. Townsel recorded 153 career recep-tions for 1,712 yards and five touchdowns while also serving



as a return specialist throughout his career at Murray State. As a senior, Townsel finished with 44 receptions for 452 yards and garnered second-team All-Ohio Valley Conference hon-ors. He had a 22.7-yard kickoff return average on 24 returns and a 24.1-yard average on nine punt returns.

Houston’s seventh-round draft pick, WR Dorin Dickersonout of Pittsburgh, is the new face in the group. Dickerson played the latter half of his college career at tight end, setting school records for touchdown receptions at that position. He has since shown the speed to play wide receiver in the NFL, while also maintaining some of the size and blocking ability that made him an elite collegiate tight end.

TIGHT ENDSThe tight end position was dealt a tough blow in 2009 with

the loss of Pro Bowler Owen Daniels to a season-ending knee injury in Houston’s Week 8 win at Buffalo. Daniels was on pace for a career year, with 40 catches for 519 yards and five touchdowns through eight games.

Daniels, who steadily improved each week in 2010 until a hamstring injury left him inactive for five weeks, showed Pro Bowl form in Week 6 against Kansas City with a then-season-high 79 yards on five receptions. He returned to the lineup from hiatus in Week 14 against Baltimore, catching five passes for a season-high 91 yards. Daniels hauled in his first touchdown pass of the season and led the team with eight receptions and totaled 73 yards in Week 16 at Denver.

Daniels has 33 receptions for 409 yards and a touchdown this season. In five seasons, he has caught 240 passes for 2,910 yards and 16 touchdowns. He was elevated to the ac-tive roster from the Active PUP List the last week of the 2010 preseason.

The loss of Daniels in 2009 and in 2010 has certainly af-fected the offense but has been lessened as Joel Dreessenhas emerged as a viable receiving threat. Dreessen has set season career highs with 34 receptions for 468 yards and four touchdowns. He posted a career-best 106 yards receiving on four receptions for a touchdown against the New York Jets in Week 11. He also led the Texans with five receptions for 73 yards in Week 4 at Oakland, and again with five receptions for 66 yards in Week 9 against San Diego. Dreessen made a clutch catch in overtime in Week 2 against Washington, pull-ing down his first reception of the season, a 28-yarder that set up the game-winning field goal. Dreessen played in all 16 games for the second straight season and caught 26 passes for 320 yards and a touchdown in 2009. Since joining the Tex-ans in 2007, Dreessen has caught 68 passes for 832 yards and seven touchdowns.

Second-year TE James Casey is a sure-handed option with surprising speed. He made the most of his first opportunity at extended playing time on offense in Week 9 against San Diego, setting career highs with four receptions for 48 yards. Casey has the ability to line up anywhere on the field and has set career highs with eight receptions for 98 yards.

The Texans added fourth-round draft pick Garrett Graham. Graham set a Wisconsin school record for tight ends with 16 career touchdown receptions to go along with 121 catches and 1,492 yards. He started 33-of-40 games played for Wis-

consin and earned First Team All-Big Ten Conference selec-tions as a junior and senior.

Anthony Hill was activated from the Physically Unable To Perform List on Nov. 30, but has been inactive each game since.

OFFENSIVE LINEThe Texans offensive line paved the way for the most

prolific season in franchise history in 2009 and is re-setting records in 2010. In 2009, Houston’s passing attack led the league, averaging 290.9 yards per game. The unit is doing the same for the NFL’s No. 5 offense through Week 15, averaging 379.3 yards per game. The line used the 2010 season opener to show it’s physicality, opening holes for Arian Foster’s re-cord rushing day and 257 total rushing yards and has paved the way for the NFL’s 11th-ranked rushing offense at 119.9 yards per game.

Houston’s line has helped produce two 200-yard rushing days (257 vs. Indianapolis and 249 at Oakland), something the team had only done once in the eight years prior.

Fifth-year veteran Chris Myers has started 63 straight games at center, including 47 in Houston, often playing through injury, and has earned praise from head coach Gary Kubiak for his play throughout the season.

Antoine Caldwell has the ability to play any of the three in-terior line positions and made three starts at right guard dur-ing his rookie campaign and saw action in 11 total games a year ago. In 2010, Caldwell has made seven starts while rotat-ing with Mike Brisiel throughout the first half of the season. Caldwell will start the remainder of the season after Brisiel was placed on the Reserve/Injured list on Dec. 15.

At RT, Eric Winston has started 69 consecutive games for the Texans. Winston, a third-round pick in the 2006 draft, has started every game over the last four-plus seasons and is considered one of the best right tackles in the league.

Veteran newcomer G Wade Smith starts at LG. Smith played the majority of his snaps with the Kansas City Chiefs (2008-09) at right guard and center and worked primarily at tackle with the New York Jets (2006-07). The former third-round selection of Miami in 2003 has played in 89 career games with 49 starts, including every game at left guard this season.

Duane Brown, Houston’s first-round pick in 2008, has start-ed all 42 games he has played in in his career at left tackle. After splitting reps as a rookie, Brown played nearly every of-fensive snap in 2009, missing only a few series in the second half at St. Louis (12/20) in Week 15. He returned from a four-game suspension against Indianapolis and started against San Diego in Week 9.

Fifth-year veteran Rashad Butler made his first career start in Week 3 against Dallas and started the following three games until Brown returned from suspension.

Kasey Studdard, the team’s sixth-round pick in the 2007, started 14 games in 2009 and has seen action this season in three games, primarily on special teams.

G Shelley Smith was taken in the sixth round of the 2010 NFL Draft and a two-time All-Mountain West Coference selection at Colorado State and backs up both guard positions on the line.


ARIAN FOSTER NOTES

RB Arian Foster is one of only 10 un-drafted players in NFL history to rush for more than 1,000 yards in a season. Foster eclipsed the 1,000-yard mark in Week 11 against the New York Jets and has an NFL-best 1,436 rushing yards this season.

Priest Holmes is the only other undraft-ed player in NFL history to rush for more

yards in the first 10 games of a season than Foster. Holmes had 1,012 yards for through the first 10 games of the 2002 season for Kansas City to Foster’s 1,004 yards through this season. To date, Foster’s rushing total is fourth all-time among undrafted players.

ARIAN FOSTER NOTES

No one has been better at getting first downs in the NFL this season than RB Arian Foster, who has moved the chains 115 times. So it only makes sense to give the ball to him on third down and that’s what the Texans do nearly a third of the time.

Foster has carried the ball 29 times on third down, rush-ing for a first down 21 times (72.4 percent). No running back with more than 20 carries on third down besides Foster this season has even a 60 percent success rate on third down rushing.

ARIAN FOSTER NOTES

Texans RB Arian Foster set numerous team records in the season opener against with a performance that put the former undrafted free agent on the national sports scene just seven games and two starts into his career.

Foster was named AFC Offensive Player of the Week and voted FedEx Ground Player of the Week by fans on NFL.com after he ran for 231 yards on 33 carries with three touchdowns against the Colts, all marks that either set or tied team records. He rushed for the second-most yards ever in an NFL season opener and is the only NFL back to rush for three touchdowns and more than 200 yards in a season opener.

LEADER OF THE PACK

RB Arian Foster is in good but rare company with the numbers he has posted running the ball.

Foster is one of just three players in NFL history to ac-cumulate more than 500 rushing yards and 100 yards re-ceiving in the first four games of a season. Foster had 537 yards rushing and 152 yards receving through the first four games of the season to give him a league-best 689 yards from scrimmage. Only Pro Football Hall of Famer Emmitt Smith and Billy Sims join Foster in accomplishing the feat.

TEXANS OFFENSIVE NOTES

WR Kevin Walter and TE Owen Dan-iels have emerged as two of the Texans’ top receiving threats since both joined the team in 2006. Only WR Andre John-son ranks ahead of the pair in recep-tions, yards and receiving touchdowns in that time.

The two currently rank second and third on Houston’s all-time receptions and receiving yardage lists and are sec-ond and fourth on the franchise receiv-ing touchdowns list, often alternating places on those lists on a weekly basis.

WR Jacoby Jones garnered a reputa-tion as one of the NFL’s most dangerous return men his first three years in the league but has increasingly become an integral part of the Texans offense.

This season, Jones has set career highs with 46 receptions for 492 yards.

He also set a single-game career high with 115 yards re-ceiving at Denver in Week 16, including a career-long 47-yard catch in the second quarter.

Jones’ career marks set this season are listed below

This is the way it was supposed to be: Texans offensive linemen C Chris Myers, RT Eric Winston and LT Rashad Butler all starting in the front five...six years ago.

Houston’s center and bookend tackles all played at the University of Miami at the same time and were projected to be on the same starting offensive line in 2004 until a set of unfortunate circumstances disrupted the plans.

Myers started all of 2004 at right tackle for the Hurricanes, while Winston, largely considered one of the best linemen in the country at the time, started at left tackle to begin his junior season.

Butler started the season with an injury and did not play until the fourth game of the year. In that same game, against Georgia Tech, Winston’s season ended with an ACL injury. Butler ended up start-ing the rest of the 2004 season at left tackle.

Myers graduated the following spring, ending for certain any chance of the trio starting together. When the three former Hurricanes started against Dallas on Week 3, it was a moment six years in the making.

back-to-back career seasons.Dreesen has set career highs in 2010 with 34 receptions

for 468 yards receiving and four touchdowns. In Week 11 against the Jets, Dreessen became just the second Tex-ans tight end to have more than 100 yards receiving in a game, catching four passes for a team best 106 yards and a touchdown.

RB Derrick Ward joined the Texans fol-lowing the preseason and has quickly become one of the offense’s biggest contributors, ranking second on the team with 252 yards rushing and scored touch-downs in three straight games earlier this season, a career first.

It was only the third time a Texan running back has rushed for a touchdown in three consecutive games (Domanick Williams, six games in 2004; Ron Dayne, three games in 2006). Teammate Arian Foster has since run for a touchdown in five consecutive games this season.

It’s no secret that the Texans’ tight ends are a vital part of the team’s offense, but the position has taken a hit the last two seasons, with Pro Bowl tight end Owen Daniels missing a combined 13 games. That includes five games this season as he suffered from a hamstring injury in ad-dition to coming back from ACL surgery that put him on IR in 2009.

Still, with the play of TE Joel Dreessen and second-year TE James Casey, as well as Daniels’ return to form since coming back from injury, the Texans tight ends have been a formidable unit in 2010. The group has combined to make 75 receptions for 975 yards and five touchdowns.

Houston’s tight end unit ranks fourth in the AFC in yards this season.

TIGHT ENDS COMBINED


TEXANS DEFENSE

Houston’s defense has struggled this season but has played better the last few weeks. Houston pitched just the second shutout in team history in a 20-0 win vs. Tennessee (11/28) and held Baltimore to 253 total yards on Monday Night Football (12/13).

One of the biggest keys to any successful defense is a strong group of leaders. The Texans defense has suf-fered season-ending losses to its two co-captains. MLB DeMeco Ryans, who is referred to by his teammates as ‘Captain,’ went out with a torn Achilles Tendon in Week 6 and DE Mario Williams was lost to a sports hernia follow-ing Week 13. Rookie Darryl Sharpton has emerged over the last six weeks as a solid contributor at the WLB spot and made the move to his natural MLB spot last Sunday at Denver (12/26), will miss the season finale with a shoulder injury.

Williams, the top pick in the 2006 Draft, is one of the pre-mier pass rushers in the NFL and has 48.0 career sacks to his name. With his loss, Antonio Smith and Mark Ander-son became the primary pass rush threats. The duo are each tied for second on the team with 4.0 sacks this year.

On the inside, the combination of fourth-year DT Amobi Okoye and DT Shaun Cody helped the Texans tie for 10th in rushing defense a year ago. This year’s group is tied for 10th in the league with one game remaining.

At linebacker, 2009 Defensive Rookie of the Year Brian Cushing made his return to the field in Week 5 against the New York Giants after sitting out the first four games. Cushing led the team with 133 tackles last year and had four sacks, four interceptions and two forced fumbles. Af-ter bouncing from SLB to MLB and back, he has begun to settle in and recapture the playmaking form he showed a year ago.

The secondary is led by SS Bernard Pollard, who quickly became the emotional leader of the defense last year. Pollard added a physical presence on the back end after signing with the Texans in Week 3 of 2009. Pollard is the team’s leading tackler in 2010 with 111 stops through 15 games.

The Texans coaches entrusted the coverage responsi-bility to a young, but talented, group of cornerbacks this year. Glover Quin has the most experience of the group with 27 starts to his name. Quin picked up the first three interceptions of his career in the same game vs. Tennes-see (11/28). Rookie first-round draft pick Kareem Jackson mans the opposite side of the field. The former Alabama star has fought through some growing pains but has played better as the season has gone on and is tied for second on the team with two interceptions.

Veteran CB Jason Allen was claimed off waivers on Nov. 11 and has since recorded three interceptions to tie Quin for the team lead. Allen is tied for the AFC lead with six interceptions (three previously with Miami).

DEFENSIVE OVERVIEW

DEFENSIVE ENDSWith the loss of Pro Bowl DE Mario Williams to injury,

the entire defensive end group has been forced to step up.Seventh-year veteran Antonio Smith, who joined the

Texans as a free agent last year after helping the Arizona Cardinals to Super Bowl XLIII, was named a co-captain by his defensive teammates prior to the season. Smith is a physical end who is capable of sliding inside to tackle on passing downs. He is tied for second on the team with 4.0 sacks, including a career-high 2.0 in Week 4 at Oakland (10/3).

Mark Anderson joined the Texans in Week 4 and picked up his first sack as a Texan in Week 8 at Indianapolis (11/1). Anderson has recorded 24.5 career sacks, five forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries. He is tied with Smith for second on the team this year with 4.0 sacks, in-cluding sacks in each of the last two games.

The Texans brought Tim Jamison back into the fold in Week 9 after releasing him earlier in the season. Jamison has played in 14 games over the last two seasons and made his first career start in Week 15 at Tennessee (12/19). He registered his first sack last Sunday at Denver (12/26)

Houston signed ninth-year pro Jarvis Green prior to Week 15 (12/16) to add depth at end after the loss of Wil-liams. Green played his first eight seasons with the New England Patriots, picking up a pair of Super Bowl rings in 2003 and 2004. He has played in 121 career games with 46 starts and has recorded 28.0 career sacks.

DEFENSE POSITION-BY-POSITION

DE Antonio Smith has registered 8.5 sacks over the last two seasons with the Texans.


TEXANS DEFENSEPOSITION-BY-POSITION

DEFENSIVE TACKLESDefensive tackle Amobi Okoye bounced back from a

disappointing second season in 2008 and became a more consistent contributor in 2009, setting a career high with 38 tackles, including 26 solo stops, and added 1.5 sacks. Okoye leads all Texans defensive linemen with 39 tackles this year, including 2.0 sacks.

Houston bolstered the interior of the line last year by signing Shaun Cody away from Detroit as a free agent, and it proved to be a wise decision. Cody recorded 21 tackles, including 12 solo stops, and 0.5 sacks in his first season as a Texan, helping the defense become one of the league’s most stout against the run. He has topped last year’s tackle numbers, notching 35 tackles through the season’s first 15 games, leaving him twoe shy of his career single-season high.

The Texans bolstered their line in the 2010 NFL Draft, se-lecting Arizona’s Earl Mitchell in the third round. Mitchell quickly developed a reputation as a player with a high mo-tor, registering 27 tackles through 15 games. He made his first career sack in Week 15 at Tennessee (12/19)

During the bye week (10/25), Houston signed free agent DT Damione Lewis, who spent the last four seasons with the Carolina Panthers. The Sulphur Springs, Texas native picked up his first sack as a Texan in Week 11 at the New York Jets, giving him 23.5 sacks, four forced fumbles and five fumble recoveries in his 10-year career.

Houston signed DT DeMario Pressley prior to Week 15 (12/15) to bolster the interior of the line. The third-year pro out of North Carolina State played in seven games last year with New Orleans and spent the early part of this year on the Saints practice squad.

LINEBACKERSThe Texans linebacking corps took a major hit with the

loss of fifth-year MLB DeMeco Ryans in Week 6. Ryans is the captain and unquestioned leader of the defense, and earned his second trip to the Pro Bowl following the 2009 season. He became the first player in franchise history to record 500 career tackles in Week 15 of 2009 and has reg-istered 10 or more tackles in 26 of his 69 career games.

The defense received an emotional boost in Week 5 with the return of Brian Cushing, who missed the first four games due to suspension. Cushing started every game his rookie season and finished second in the AFC with a team-leading 133 tackles. In the immediate wake of Ryans’ injury, Cushing was responsible for calling the defensive plays in the huddle and keeping his teammates organized on the field during a two-game stint at MLB. He is now back to his natural SLB position and is second on the team with eight tackles for loss.

Fourth-round draft pick Darryl Sharpton played his way into the starting lineup midway through the season and has taken that opportunity and run with it. Sharpton is ca-pable of playing any of the three linebacker positions and made the move to MLB last Sunday at Denver (12/26). He made his first career sack in Week 14 against Baltimore (12/13). It was revealed Monday that Sharpton would miss the season finale against Jacksonville with a shoulder injury.

Special teams standout and ninth-year veteran Kevin Bentley stepped into the starting role at MLB when Cush-ing returned to his natural SLB position following a brief trial inside. Bentley has played solidly since entering the starting lineup, totaling 44 tackles in the last eight weeks. He had a standout game in Week 11 at the New York Jets (11/21) with eight tackles, an interception and a fumble recovery.

Bentley’s teammates elected him a special teams cap-tain each of the last two years. He led the team in special teams tackles each of the previous two seasons.

WLB Zac Diles rebounded from a broken leg that ended his 2008 campaign to play in all 16 games for the first time in his career in 2009 and finished last year with 61 tackles, including 45 solo stops, and seven tackles for loss. Diles has put together a solid season, establishing a career high with 78 tackles through the team’s first 15 games, though he has been hampered recently by injuries.

The player who filled in during Cushing’s absence was third-year linebacker Xavier Adibi. Adibi played in all 16 games in a reserve role last year and finished with three total tackles. He started three of the first four games and has registered 11 tackles in total this season.

Houston signed third-year pro Stanford Keglar in Week 8 following the loss of Ryans. An Indianapolis native, Keglar made his Texans debut against the Colts on November 1. He has played in 28 games in his three-year career. Keglar made a big play early in Week 9 vs. San Diego (11/7), tip-DT Shaun Cody has been a vital part of a defense that

ranks ninth in the NFL against the run.


DEFENSEPOSITION-BY-POSITION

CORNERBACKSThe Texans have one of the youngest starting corner-

back duos in the NFL this season with second-year vet-eran Glover Quin and rookie Kareem Jackson manning the two starting positions.

A fourth-round draft pick in 2009, Quin is second on the team with 80 tackles and has a team-high 14 passes de-fensed in his sophomore campaign. Quin picked off the first three passes of his career in Week 12 vs. Tennessee (11/28).

The Texans selected Jackson in the first round with the 20th overall selection following his junior season with 2009 BCS National Champion Alabama. Jackson is tied for sec-ond on the team with two interceptions on the season.

Houston claimed veteran corner Jason Allen on No-vember 11 off waivers to bolster the secondary. Allen has played in 77 games with 19 starts in five years, all with the Miami Dolphins until joining the Texans. He has 11 career interceptions, including six this season and three with the Texans, which ties him for the team lead.

Second-year corner Brice McCain, a sixth-round draft pick in 2009, moved into the nickel cornerback role in his second year and has registered 22 tackles and two passes defensed in 11 games.

The Texans also selected Northwestern University CB Sherrick McManis in the fifth round of the draft. McMa-nis has shined in limited playing time thus far this season, making his first career interception in Week 5 against the New York Giants.

Antwaun Molden excelled on special teams as a rookie

in 2008 but has seen each of his first two seasons cut short by injury. Molden has played in 31 games and was selected to USA Today’s All-Joe Team in 2008.

SAFETIESBernard Pollard joined the Texans as a free agent in the

third week of 2009 and finished third on the team with a then-career-high 102 tackles and tied for the team lead with four interceptions to go along with 1.5 sacks. Pol-lard’s intense, fiery playing style has rubbed off on his teammates, who elected him as a defensive co-captain this year. He leads the team with 111 tackles, a new ca-reer best, through 15 games this season and has a career-high 2.5 sacks on the year.

Troy Nolan, who was taken in the seventh round of the 2009 draft by the Texans, missed his entire rookie season due to a broken arm suffered in the first preseason game of last season. Nolan saw his first extended playing time in Week 4 at Oakland (10/3) and responded with two inter-ceptions and four tackles. He made his first career start a week later against the New York Giants (10/10) and made a career-high seven tackles.

Veteran FS Eugene Wilson fought through a knee injury suffered in a 2009 preseason game for nine games before before a foot injury ended his season prematurely. Wilson has recorded 45 tackles and three passes defensed this season.

Houston signed Quintin Demps in Week 14 (12/7) to add depth on the back end of the secondary. The San Antonio native spent his first two seasons with Philadelphia and saw action in 25 games and made one interception for the Eagles. Demps has been inactive for both games with the Texans this season.

CB Glover Quin had a franchise-record three intercep-tions in Week 12 vs. Tennessee.

SS Bernard Pollard leads the team with 98 tackles through 13 games this season.


DEFENSE NOTES

TOUGH SLEDDING

The Texans defense has given up some big numbers through the first 15 games of the year, but a look at who Houston has played shows that those numbers should not be all that surprising.

Houston’s opponents are averaging 354.7 yards per game on offense. That is the third-toughest slate for any defense in the league to date.

One of the many bright spots in Hous-ton’s 20-0 win over Tennessee in Week 12 was the play of second-year lineback-er Brian Cushing.

The 2009 AP Defensive Rookie of the Year missed the first four games of the season due to suspension, and was then

shifted to MLB shortly after his return to the field.The combination of those factors appeared to slow Cush-

ing’s return to the dominant form he showed as a rookie, but if the last few games are any indication, he may be back on track.

Cushing is tied for the team lead with 31 tackles over the last five weeks, including 1.5 sacks and seven tackles for loss.

CUSHING RETURNING TO FORM

Houston’s strong play against the run continues a trend that began last season. Since Week 4 of 2009, the Tex-ans defense ranks fifth in the NFL yards per carry against. Looking at the 2010 season on its own, Houston ranks ninth, giving up just 3.9 yards per carry.

DEFENSE NOTES

CODY’S CAREER YEAR

Rookie LB Darryl Sharpton joined the starting lineup in Week 11 at the New York Jets (11/21) and has refused to relinquish his grip on the starting role.

Sharpton contributed five tackles in his starting debut that day, and has elevated his play further over the last two weeks. In

Week 14 vs. Baltimore (12/13), he made a career-high six tackles and picked up his first career sack.

Last Sunday at Denver (12/26), Sharpton made his first start at MLB and registered five tackles, including one tackle for loss.

SHARPTON STEPPING UP

Sharpton

“I don’t know where he’s suited, but he needs to be out there all the time. He was as good a football player as we had on this field yesterday and I’m sure you all saw it, too. Boy, he really, really played well and he played well on special teams.”- Houston Texans head coach Gary Kubiak on Darryl

Sharpton, December 20, 2010

ANDERSON ON THE ATTACK

Houston signed free agent DE Mark Anderson on October 7 following a rash of injuries on the defensive line, and the results over the last 10 weeks have been excellent.

Anderson, who had 12.0 sacks as a rook-ie with the Chicago Bears in 2006, had only

9.5 over the next three seasons. This year with the Texans, he has recaptured the ability to get after the quarterback and has 4.0 sacks to show for it, which puts him in a tie for second on the team.

While the Texans defense has been decimated by injuries at defensive end, the interior of the line has played very consistently, helping Houston rank ninth in the league against the run.

A big reason for that has been the play of DT Shaun Cody. Cody joined the Tex-

ans as a free agent in 2009 and is putting together the most productive season of his career. The former All-American at USC is on track to start every game in a season for the first time in his career.

Cody has registered 35 total stops this season, includ-ing 19 solos. With three more tackles in Sunday’s season finale, he would establish a career single-season high, topping his total of 37 set in 2008 with Detroit.

MAKING UP FOR MISSING MARIO

The Houston defense lost Pro Bowl DE Mario Williams to injury in Week 15, meaning the rest of the defense would have to step up. Counting the Monday night game vs. Bal-timore (12/13) when Williams was injured, seven different Texans have notched at least one sack.

DEFENSE NOTES

Houston’s secondary has been one of the most scruti-nized and sternly tested units in the NFL to start the sea-son. Through Week 16, Houston is 32nd against the pass, giving up 277.1 yards per game through the air.

The Texans starting cornerback duo still have the third-least experience of any starting tandem in the league. Only New England’s duo of second-year vet Kyle Ar-rington and rookie Devin McCourty has less combined experience.

HOUSTON’S KIDDIE CORNERS

Kareem Jackson has received more than his share of criticism during the first season of his young career as the Texans defense has struggled to stop opposing passing attacks.

According to STATS, LLC, Jackson had 85 passes thrown in his direction through Houston’s first 15 games and yield-ed 45 completions, for a 52.9 percent completion rate. That is the best among Texans cornerbacks so far this season.

Jackson’s completion percentage allowed compares favorably to the performance of some of the game’s top cover men during their first year as a starter, including 2009 All-Pro corners Charles Woodson and Darrelle Re-vis.

KAREEM IN CONTEXT

“I think you have to be thrown in the fire and you have to have those rough plays because those are the plays you learn from. If he sticks with it and continues to work hard he’ll start to see it turn around at some point because it always does. It’s just a matter of being patient.

“As a rookie, I didn’t play much. I played special teams. In my second year I played safety. I went through those rough patches, but I had more rough patches in my third year because that’s when I really started to play corner. This guy has the benefit of playing corner as a rookie. He’s going to be able to improve a lot sooner than I was able to.”- Oakland Raiders CB Nnamdi Asomugha on Kareem

Jackson, September 29, 2010

CB Glover Quin went through quite a rough two weeks, first inadvertently batting a Hail Mary pass into the arms of a Jacksonville receiver in Week 10, then giving up the game-winning touchdown pass in the waning seconds in Week 11.

Quin’s perserverence was rewarded against Tennessee (11/28), though, when he recorded his first career inter-ception. And his second. And his third.

Quin’s three interceptions were the most in a game in Texans history and he became the seventh Texans de-fender to record multiple interceptions in a game.

DEFENSE NOTES

DEFENSE’S DOMINANT DAY

The Houston defense has faced heavy criticism through-out much of the season, giving up an average of 408.8 yards per game coming into the Week 12 game vs. Ten-nessee (11/28), including a league-worst 301.0 per game through the air. The Texans turned things around in a big way against the Titans, though.

Most importantly, the Texans shut out the Titans in a 20-0 victory. The shutout was just the second in Texans history and the first under head coach Gary Kubiak.

One of the bright spots in Houston’s 30-27 loss at the New York Jets in Week 11 was the play of MLB Kevin Bentley. The ninth-year pro out of Northwestern led the team with a season-high eight tack-les in his third start of the year.

Bentley also made the two biggest de-fensive plays of the game, recovering a fumble and pick-ing off a pass in the fourth quarter to help spur the Texans’ furious rally.

Bentley became just the fourth Texans player to register a fumble recovery and an interception in the same game.

DILES DELIVERING ON DEFENSE

Fourth-year LB Zac Diles is third on the team through 15 games with 78 total tackles, including 55 solo stops. For Diles, a seventh-round pick in 2007, the strong performance was the continuation of a trend.

Diles won the starting job at SLB in his second season and was leading the team with 66 tackles through eight games before a broken leg derailed his year. In 2009, Diles won the starting WLB job and put together another strong year, finishing with 61 tackles, two forced fumbles and a fumble recovery.

Diles has played in all but one game this season. He missed Houston’s Week 11 game at the New York Jets (11/21) due to illness but returned to the field the follow-ing week.

SPECIAL TEAMS NOTES

K Neil Rackers became just the second kicker in Texans history following training camp, when he won the tightest battle of training camp and took over the kicking duties formerly held by Kris Brown for the last eight seasons.

Rackers is 25-of-28 (89.3 percent) on field goal attempts, including the game-winner in overtime at Washington (9/19). He is also a perfect 39-of-39 on point after attempts this year, meaning he has connected on 95.5 percent of his kicks this season.

P Matt Turk has averaged 42.4 yards per punt in his ca-reer and has averaged better than 41 yards per attempt in all but one season. Only 427 of Turk’s 1,097 career punts (38.9 percent) have been returned. This season, Turk is av-eraging 42.2 yards per punt.

WR Jacoby Jones holds the Texans career record for punt return average at 10.0 yards per return over the last four seasons. He tied the Texans career record for total returns for touchdown when he scored the third of his ca-reer in 2009. Jones took on part-time kickoff return duties this season as well and averaged 21.5 yards per return on 23 returns.

SPECIAL TEAMS OVERVIEW

KICKERNeil Rackers has made 230-of-290 career field goal at-

tempts (79.3 percent) and converted 329-of-334 career extra points attempts (98.5 percent), giving him 1,019 to-tal career points in 11 NFL seasons. He became the 44th kicker in NFL history to reach the 1,000-point plateau in Week 14 on Monday Night Football vs. Baltimore (12/13).

PUNTERMatt Turk averaged a franchise-record 42.8 yards per

punt in 2009, besting his own mark of 42.3 yards per punt in 2008. Turk has broken the team record in each of the last three seasons and is playing in his 15th NFL season. This year, he is averaging 42.2 yards per punt with a chance to set the team record again with a big day on Sunday.

RACKERS NEARS TEAM RECORD

Texans LS Jon Weeks’ route to the NFL was, in a word, circuitous. A self-de-scribed “military brat,” Weeks was born in Bethpage, New York and graduated from high school in Glendale, Arizona.

As a senior at Mountain Ridge High, Weeks attended a special teams camp,

where he caught the eye of the coaches from Baylor Uni-versity. He walked on at Baylor as a long snapper and eventually earned a scholarship.

After college, Weeks volunteered at a hospital and be-gan a nine-week certication program to become a fire-fighter. Taking one last stab at his football dreams, he attended coach Gary Zauner’s specialists combine. There he caught the attention of a Texans scout. The Texans in-vited Weeks for a tryout and signed him the following day, and Weeks won his roster spot during training camp.

Texans K Neil Rackers moved into 50th place on the NFL’s all-time scoring list among kickers with his 12-point effort at Washington (9/19).

His eight-point effort in Houston’s Week 14 game vs. Bal-timore on Monday Night Football (12/13) gave him 1,003 career points in 11 seasons. Rackers became the 44th kicker in NFL history to score 1,000 career points.

SPECIAL TEAMS NOTES

Texans K Neil Rackers has amassed 44 tackles on spe-cial teams throughout his 11-year career to rank first among NFL kickers since STATS, LLC started tracking special teams tackles in 1994. He ranks fifth on the Tex-ans this season with seven special teams tackles, includ-ing one in Houston’s 20-0 win vs. Tennessee in Week 12 (11/28).

Head coach Gary Kubiak commented on Rackers’ style earlier in the season: “It scares you, but you don’t want to take that away from him,” Kubiak said. “He likes to go down there. He will make a tackle. You don’t want to lose him, but I think that’s what makes him tick. He likes being a part of that. He likes getting pushed around a bit and showing his teammates he’ll go down there and make a tackle.”

Rackers leads the team lead with 114 points and is 25-for-28 on field goals this season.

Designated Media will be allowed at all practices. Dur-ing each practice, the team will use two practice fields. The area between the two practice fields – where the scissor lift is located – is off-limits to media, but media can walk the perimeter of the fields.

Photographers can only cross the covered area if they are accompanied by a Texans PR representative. Photog-raphers can shoot selected portions of practice. Tripods are allowed at practice, however they must be seven yards from the sideline and behind the line of scrimmage at all times. Please do not leave tripods unattended. To not impede the view of the fans at practice, all photographers must kneel when shooting in front of the stands.

Members of the communications staff will be on the field during all practices to assist with any questions. During practices held inside the bubble, all media must stay on the near sideline.

PRACTICE GUIDELINES

Media can apply for credentials at the Texans media website:

http://www.houstontexans.com/about-us/media-relations.html.

Please contact Communications Coordinator Charles Hampton at [email protected] or at (832) 667-2282 with any questions or concerns.

CREDENTIALS

Following Texans practice, media are encouraged to take advantage of the media workroom located on the service level at Reliant Stadium across from the Texans’ locker room. The room is available to working media throughout the season. Phones, Texans information, NFL news releases and other information are available. Wire-less service will be available in the media workroom.

During practice, media should park in the Teal Lot lo-cated on Murworth, across from Reliant Stadium in front of the Methodist Training Center. Media can either walk over to the media workroom or drive to the day lot, located at Westridge and Kirby on the south side of Reliant Sta-dium. Media should walk through Budweiser Plaza to the stadium entrance.
