WATCH: Texans coach DeMeco Ryans brings enthusiasm to OTAs

One of the more compelling reasons why Clutch City sports fans were welcoming of DeMeco Ryans as coach of the Houston Texans is his enthusiasm.

There was no better display of the former two-time Pro Bowl linebacker’s spirit for the game than during organized team activities on May 31.

The Texans’ media department embedded a microphone on Ryans during practice and filmed his reactions throughout the session.

Naturally for a 38-year-old who has kept himself in great shape since his last game in 2015, Ryans was jumping around and shouting as though he were going to participate in the reps.

“Just for me in this position, it’s a role of service, and I’m just in position to help out either side of the ball as much as I can,” Ryans said.
