2015 Houston Texans OTAs: Day One Recap

What's that? You'd like to see a post about something other than how the Houston Texans will be featured on "Hard Knocks" this year?

You've got some nerve. Fine.

As none of the BRB staff was actually present for OTAs today, the following tweets will have to suffice. After yesterday's session was canceled, today was the first day of the Houston Texans' 2015 Organized Team Activities. Some observations from people who were in attendance below.

Ryan Mallett went through full OTA today, splitting reps with Brian Hoyer. Mallett was sharp and made all throws. #Texans

Mallett wasn't always accurate. But he ripped off passes like normal. #Texans

Texans' first OTA is in the books. Best thing I saw? Ryan Mallett's cannon arm is back. Passes weren't always on the money, though.

Hoyer began with first team today. Will be interesting to see how #Texans split, balance reps as preseason approaches.

#Texans' Brian Hoyer said tempo stood out today. "It went well." Offense is similar to #Patriots'. pic.twitter.com/SoJwjcV4Nr

Jadeveon Clowney watched #Texans' first OTA from side. Looked agile (while walking).

Louis Nix: "My goal this year is to make it through a practice." #Texans

— Brian T. Smith (@ChronBrianSmith) May 27, 2015

Louis Nix says he likes O'Brien's challenges and "I can prove a lot of you guys wrong too." #Texans

Brian Cushing: "I'm the best physically I've been in a while." #Texans

— Brian T. Smith (@ChronBrianSmith) May 27, 2015

Cushing has a good first impression of rookie LB Benardrick McKinney. #Texans

Jaelen Strong came up lame during a team drill. Seemed to be in his hamstring area. #Texans

— Tania Ganguli (@taniaganguli) May 27, 2015

And finally...

#Texans coach Bill O'Brien didn't speak with media following first day of OTAs. #NFL

Probably just way too excited about "Hard Knocks."
