Caserio replaces Bill O’Brien, who was dismissed for his duties as head coach and general manager last October. The Texans’ start to the season had been catastrophic, with four initial losses.

According to Mike Florio of ProFootballTalk, the basis of the new general manager’s contract is $ 30 million. The Texans had already approached Caserio in 2019.
