The Houston Texans' new offensive coordinator Nick Caley is promoting assistant offensive line coach Cole Popovich to offensive line coach, a person with knowledge of the move told the Chronicle. It's Caley's first known move since getting the job over seven other candidates Monday.

The #Texans have promoted Cole Popovich to offensive line coach and run game coordinator, sources say. He’ll work closely with new OC Nick Caley. Previously, Popovich was the assistant OL coach, but Houston always held him in high regard.

Popovich has spent the past two seasons as the team’s assistant offensive line coach. It had been incorrectly reported last week that Popovich was fired alongside former offensive line coach Chris Strausser.
