In a surprising move that has sent shockwaves through the NFL community, the Houston Texans have officially parted ways with offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik. This decision comes as the team looks to revitalize its struggling offense heading into the 2025 season.

Despite earning accolades for his coaching prowess, particularly his successful partnership with rookie sensation C.J. Stroud in 2023, Slowik's tenure in Houston was marred by disappointing results in 2024. Stroud, who was celebrated as the AP Offensive Rookie of the Year and had high hopes for his second season, saw a troubling regression. His interceptions more than doubled, and his overall passing stats dropped sharply, leading the Texans to finish a lackluster 19th in points scored and 22nd in total yards—far worse than their rankings of 13th and 12th the previous year.

Slowik, who turned 37 this year, was known for his previous experience under head coach DeMeco Ryans with the San Francisco 49ers. He joined the 49ers coaching staff in 2017 as a defensive quality control coach before transitioning to the offensive side of the ball, ultimately becoming the passing game coordinator in 2022. His journey to Houston alongside Ryans was highly anticipated, but the results fell short of expectations.

In addition to Slowik, the Texans have also decided to let go of offensive line coach Chris Strausser after two seasons, suggesting a broader approach to revamping the coaching staff. With these critical changes, the Texans are clearly signaling their intention to support Stroud better and improve their offensive output.

As the countdown to the 2025 season begins, fans are left wondering who will step in to revitalize the Texans' offense. Will they bring in a seasoned veteran, or could a fresh face on the coaching staff be just what Stroud needs to bounce back?
