Texans Want Tyrann Mathieu To Focus On Safety
7 years agoThe Houston Texans want the versatile Tyrann Mathieu to line up at safety, at least in the early going. "We told him that we really do value – as you know – we value versatility, but we also understand that a guy needs to have basically one home. He needs to understand and master that one home, which is safety for Tyrann. Then, in different packages that are played less of the time, maybe he does something else," head coach Bill O'Brien said. In his career with the Cardinals, Mathieu has 303 tackles, 11 interceptions, 41 passes defensed, 28 tackles for loss, four sacks, four forced fumbles and one fumble recovery, and he spent time at safety, cornerback and linebacker. Focusing on one spot on defense may make Mathieu more productive for Houston and for owners in IDP leagues.
