"I want to thank Janice, Cal, Hannah, and the McNair family for giving me this incredible opportunity to join the NFL. I love working with people who are passionate about their work and love what they do, and it was clear in our conversations that the McNairs love this organization and the city of Houston.

I also want to thank my wife, Lauren, and my two children for their support, we're all thrilled about the opportunity to move to Houston. I know that Texans fans are among the most passionate in the NFL, and I can't wait to get started."

Schedule Update
The Lou Little Cup lives again.
What was thought to be the end of the 10-year series with Columbia has apparently been extended through at least 2025, per a Columbia University release. The Lions will meet Georgetown on September 27, 2025 in New York.Columbia finished the season 7-3 with a share of its first Ivy League title since 1961.
This addition, plus the arrival of Richmond to the Patriot League schedule, suggests that if Marist and Davidson return to the schedule, Georgetown will play a 12 game season for the first time since 2003, or one of these schools will be coming off the schedule for an 11 game slate.
