In his debut season as the Houston Texans’ offensive coordinator, Bobby Slowik performed admirably. It appears that Slowik will be employed after this first year.
According to reports, Slowik has accepted a new contract to stay in Houston. NFL insider Albert Breer claims that a “significant” compensation increase is part of the deal.
Other teams had expressed interest in hiring Slowik and other Texans employees. Jerrod Johnson, the quarterbacks coach, was interviewed by multiple teams interested in hiring him as their offensive coordinator. However, Johnson chose to remain in Houston, much like Slowik did.
In the Texans’ first season with rookie quarterback CJ Stroud as quarterback, the squad had an excellent offensive campaign. With only five interceptions in his incredible first campaign, the Ohio State graduate threw for 4,108 yards and 23 touchdowns in 23 touchdowns. He made NFL history by being the first rookie to lead the league in touchdowns to interceptions. Also, Stroud had the highest throwing yards per game (273.9) in the league.
Weekly progress made by Stroud elevated Slowik’s standing as a potential head coach. He was added to the short list of applicants for a few league coaching openings.
It is highly probable that Slowik will attract interest from other clubs once more if Stroud and the Texans have an offensive season comparable to that of 2024.
