The Texans have added a coach with nearly three decades of experience working with offensive linemen to their staff.
According to Alex Marvez of FoxSports.com, the Texans have hired former Falcons offensive line coach Paul Dunn to the same position on Bill O’Brien’s coaching staff.
The 53-year-old Dunn was the Falcons’ offensive line coach the last two seasons (2012-2013) after a four-year stint as Atlanta’s assistant offensive line coach. Before joining the Falcons, Dunn had stints as a collegiate offensive line coach at Pittsburgh, Kentucky, Kansas State, Vanderbilt, Cincinnati, Maine, Rutgers and Edinboro (Pa.).
Marvez also reports that John Benton, the Texans’ offensive line coach from 2006-2013, has taken a job as the Dolphins’ assistant offensive line coach.
