HOUSTON — The league owners will vote on whether to approve Houston Texans chairman and CEO Cal McNair as the franchise’s new principal owner at the NFL owners’ meeting, a source confirmed to ESPN.
The NFL owners are expected to vote Tuesday morning.
Bob McNair, the Texans’ former owner, died in November 2018. His wife, Janice McNair, became the Texans’ principal owner and is one of 10 women who are principal owners.
After his father’s death, Cal took over the Texans’ daily football procedures and has represented the team at owner’s meetings in place of Janice.
The expected vote, which was first reported by The Houston Chronicle, doesn’t mean the team is available for purchase, as a source told ESPN that the Texans are not for sale and “have no plans for that.”
If the other NFL owners vote in favor of Cal, he will continue to run the franchise as he has for the past five seasons. The Texans have gone 31-51-1 since then.
News of the vote follows the end of a case last month filed by one of Janice’s sons that had sought to have her declared incapacitated and have a guardian appointed. Robert Cary McNair Jr. had filed his application for appointment of a guardian for Janice in November with probate court in Harris County, where Houston is located.
But Feb. 26, lawyers for Cary McNair, along with others involved in the case, filed a motion in which they agreed to jointly drop the lawsuit.
