Casserly resigns as Houston Texans GM
Houston Texans general manager Charley Casserly resigned Wednesday, saying he was leaving on his own terms to pursue a job in the NFL’s front office.
There was speculation Casserly would be fired in the wake of the Texans’ 2-14 season and their controversial choice for the No. 1 pick in the NFL draft.
The Texans passed over Heisman Trophy winner Reggie Bush and hometown favorite Vince Young to take defensive end Mario Williams with the top choice in last month’s draft.
Texans owner Bob McNair said Casserly was never going to be fired. Casserly will officially step down June 1. …
New Orleans and Miami swapped yong linebackers in a trade that sent Courtney Watson to the Dolphins and Eddie Moore to the Saints.
