Brian Johnson

KPRC2’s Aaron Wilson reports the Texans requested an interview with Commanders passing game coordinator Brian Johnson for their offensive coordinator vacancy.

Johnson was the offensive coordinator for the Eagles in 2023 and has also served as a college offensive coordinator during stints at Utah (2012-2013), Houston (2017), and Florida (2018-2019). He joined the Commanders’ staff this offseason as their assistant head coach and passing game coordinator but could once again find himself in a play-caller role if he catches on with the Texans. During his lone season as the Eagles’ offensive coordinator, the Eagles ranked seventh in points per game (25.5) and eighth in yards per game while also ranking in the top 10 in both EPA per play and offensive success rate. Once viewed as a rising play-caller who also helped with the development of Jalen Hurts, Johnson could make for a nice pairing with third-year quarterback C.J. Stroud next season.
