Vance Joseph, who coached defensive backs at San Francisco, is the new Texans' secondary coach.

Joseph, who spent the last six years with the 49ers, will replace David Gibbs, who was fired after two seasons. Joseph will work with Perry Carter, the Texans' assistant defensive backs coach.

Joseph, a Louisiana native, played at the University of Colorado, where he also began his coaching career. With the 49ers, he shared the defensive backs coaching duties with Johnny Lynn.

The defensive coordinator at San Francisco has been Greg Manusky, who worked with new Texans defensive coordinator Wade Phillips at San Diego. Manusky highly recommended Joseph.

The Texans are looking for a linebackers coach. Dallas denied their permission to interview linebackers coach Reggie Herring, who worked with Phillips.


They just HAD to throw that CO statement in there.....at least it wasn't CO ST!
