NFL Network is reporting that Lovie Smith is very likely to be the next Head Coach of the Texans. Up until now, Lovie was not even mentioned for anything.
If I may throw out a guess, I think a certain league official went over to a certain team owner and said "If you hire that white QB with no coaching experience whatsoever over ANY MINORITY BUT BRIAN FLORES, the officiating will not be kind to you for the next 10 years".
And to be fair, McCown has no business being a Head Coach right now over guys like Lovie or Caldwell anyway. I just think with Flores somehow still being a finalist for the Texans job, the league let the team know what a bad idea that was and they need to hire someone else who won't add to a lawsuit.
LOL I was thinking someone from the league office was probably telling the Texans to hire Flores, and in return they would limit/eliminate the games Watson will be suspended for once he actually goes to take the field. If I were the Texans I would suit up Watson just to force the league to start his suspension games clock.
