Report: Texans hiring Dino Vasso as secondary coach

The Houston Texans are adding former Philadelphia Eagles defensive assistant Dino Vasso as their new secondary coach.

The Houston Texans continue to add to their coaching staff under new coach David Culley.

Culley, a former Philadelphia Eagles receivers coach from 1999-2012, went to a familiar well and the Texans will be adding former Eagles defensive assistant Dino Vasso as their new secondary coach, according to Aaron Wilson of the Houston Chronicle.

Vasso worked with Culley when the two were under coach Andy Reid with the Kansas City Chiefs from 2013-15. In 2016, Vasso left to join rookie coach Doug Pederson’s staff with the Eagles.

Before Vasso made the leap into the NFL, he was an offensive intern for Temple in 2011 and then was a defensive graduate assistant at Missouri in 2012.

The Crum Lynne, Penn., native played defensive back in college for New Hampshire from 2006-10 and was a first-team AFCA All-American as a senior.
