The Houston Texans decided to invest in Pep Hamilton as their offensive coordinator in the first season with coach Lovie Smith.
Hamilton, who had previously been the quarterbacks coach and passing game coordinator under then-coach David Culley, who lasted only the 2021 campaign, is taking the reins as an offensive coordinator at the NFL level for the first time since 2015 with the Indianapolis Colts.
Guard A.J. Cann signed with the Texans after the Jacksonville Jaguars allowed their former 2015 third-round pick to hit the open market. What Cann has been able to gather about his new offensive coordinator through organized team activities is the level of knowledge and attention to detail Hamilton has.
