HOUSTON — During a break in Friday’s NFL training camp action, Rockets head coach Stephen Silas had a chance to talk to Texans head coach Lovie Smith on the sidelines. Smith had invited Silas to attend practice with the opportunity to finally meet, face to face.
While on the sideline, Silas took some mental notes on how Smith was relating to his younger players, as well as making sure they were where they needed to be in order to succeed in the play being called. One player Silas paid special attention to was rookie cornerback Derek Stingley Jr., and specifically how he interacted with Smith.
