The Texans have been among the many groups and organizations to offer support for the Uvalde community in the aftermath of the May 24 mass shooting that killed 21 people, including 19 children, at Robb Elementary School. Ahead of their season opener against the Colts, the team took things a step further by hosting the Uvalde High School football team at the facility.
Uvalde coach Wade Miller and his team made a four-hour drive to the Texans facilities for Sunday’s game, and were hosted in a suite at NRG Stadium. The gesture came after Texans coach Lovie Smith and two players visited Uvalde earlier this month, surprising the team with new uniforms.
