Reggies on the Payroll

[nunusguy]

The Texans have hired Dallas Cowboys assistant coach Reggie Herring to coach linebackers, according to a person with knowledge of the decision.

Herring, who began his NFL career with the Texans in 2002-03, was new defensive coordinator Wade Phillips' first choice to coach linebackers. Phillips and Herring worked together with the Cowboys until Phillips was fired as head coach after a 1-7 start.

Herring met with coach Gary Kubiak on Wednesday. Last week, Kubiak hired the defensive backs coach Phillips wanted, San Francisco's Vance Joseph.

Meanwhile, Bruce Matthews is still working for the Texans after interviewing with the Cowboys on Monday. They're interested in him as an assistant offensive line coach.

Wade seems to be having his way with the defensive coaching hires, now I wonder if he gets his way with the defensive side of the Draft ?
