"For the remainder of the season, effective immediately, his responsibilities will be absorbed by our Football Operations staff. WE acknowledge Jack's positive contributions and wish him and his family the best in the future."
Easterby, who previously worked in the New England Patriots organization, is largely responsible for the direction of the Houston franchise since arriving in 2019.
