One day after the Buffalo Payments punched their mark to the AFC championship, defensive coordinator Leslie Frazier is exploring his alternate choices for the future previous this postseason.
Frazier interviewed Sunday for the open head coaching emptiness with the Houston Texans, in response to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
The Texans are making an attempt to safe a substitute for Invoice O’Brien, who became fired sooner than Week 5. Defensive coordinator Romeo Crennel became serving as the team’s intervening time head coach.
Frazier, who won a Lovely Bowl as a defensive wait on with the Chicago Bears (Lovely Bowl XX), has served as the defensive coordinator for the Payments since 2017. His resume also involves stints as an assistant with multiple groups, along with the Philadelphia Eagles, Cincinnati Bengals, Indianapolis Colts (the attach he won Lovely Bowl XLI), Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Baltimore Ravens, but he brings head coaching journey from his time with the Minnesota Vikings (2010-13).
Sooner than this season, wherein he helped the Payments to their first convention championship recreation since 1994, Frazier’s defense ranked third within the league in 2019, when they allowed just precise 298.3 yards per recreation. In 2018, the unit ranked 2d (294.1 yards allowed)—its most tasty performance since pacing the NFL in 1999.
In Minneapolis, the attach he became named intervening time head coach when the Vikings fired Brad Childress, he went 21-32-1.
Primarily based exclusively totally on Aaron Wilson of the Houston Legend, the Texans have already interviewed Carolina Panthers offensive coordinator Joe Brady, dilapidated Detroit Lions and Indianapolis Colts coach Jim Caldwell and dilapidated Cincinnati Bengals coach Marvin Lewis.
The team hired longtime Fresh England Patriots govt Reduce Caserio as their same previous supervisor on Jan. 7.
