Aaron Wilson reports that the Texans have interviewed offensive assistant Bill Lazor for their offensive coordinator position.

Lazor, 52, began his NFL coaching career with the Falcons in 2003 as an offensive quality control coach. From there, Lazor worked for a number of teams including the Commanders, Seahawks, Eagles, and Dolphins before the Bengals hired him as their quarterbacks coach in 2016.

After the Bengals fired OC Ken Zampese a few weeks into the 2017 season, Lazor was promoted to offensive coordinator. The Bengals elected to retain Lazor as their offensive coordinator until Cincinnati parted ways with him in 2018 when they became set on hiring Zac Taylor as their next head coach.

Lazor worked as an analyst for Penn State in 2019 before taking the Bears offensive coordinator job in 2021. He then joined the Texans as a senior offensive assistant in 2023.

We will have more on the Texans and Lazor as it becomes available.
