Franchise History of the Houston Texans


The Texans took the field for the first time in the 2002 NFL season, and wasted little time making their mark.  Houston downed their cross-state rival Dallas Cowboys, 19-10, in the franchise's regular season opener at Reliant Stadium.  In doing so, it marked the first time that an expansion team won its opening game since the Minnesota Vikings' stunning upset of the Chicago Bears in 1961.
