Houston Texans have reportedly opted to end their association with Head Coach, Bill O’Brien, after a disastrous start to their 2020 NFL campaign. The AFC South franchise remain winless after four games.

They’ve had some poor roster moves in the offseason with the likes of the veteran wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins’ move to Arizona Cardinals being termed as the ‘worst trade move’ of all time.

In addition to that, their first and second-round picks from the 2021 NFL draft belong to the Miami Dolphins. Fans have been calling for O’Brien’s sacking for a while now, and it seems like their prayers have finally been answered.

Bill O’Brien at the mercy of the winds of change

As per the latest reports from NFL insider Adam Schefter and his colleagues, Houston Texans owner Cal McNair has relieved Head Coach and General Manager, Bill O’Brien, from their duties with immediate effect. O’Brien will step down from both his managerial posts after a dismal start to the 2020 NFL season.

The Texans are on a 0-4 record after four weeks and are yet to register a win in this campaign. Their most recent loss came at the hands of the Minnesota Vikings at the NRG Stadium on Sunday.
