Houston Texans - Home Stadiums







Fall 2022: To purchase a reasonably priced 8" x 24" plaqued mounted version of the Texans poster that's ready to hang on your wall, please visit Heritage Sports Stuff.

A. The Houston Texans 

On October 6, 1999 the NFL awarded its 32nd franchise to Houston. The club first played in 2002. The Texans replaced the city's previous NFL franchise, the Houston Oilers, who played from 1960 to 1996. The Oilers moved to Nashville and are now known as the Tennessee Titans.

B. The Texans have played in one home stadium:
1. Reliant Stadium (2002-13) / NRG Stadium (2014 – Present)
Houston TX











C. For more information on the Texans, you should bookmark these four great websites:

For a huge amount of great historic player and team information:

www.footballdb.com

and

www.pro-football-reference.com/teams

For a great summary of the Texans' year by year standings:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Houston_Texans_seasons

For great information about the stadium (don't be fooled by the fact that the website is called "ballparks.com", it also has great information on football stadiums):

www.ballparks.com

D. Celebrate the Texans' uniform history by owning a piece of history:

If you love the Houston Texans and the history of the Texans franchise, you might really love to own an original piece of artwork celebrating the team's historic uniforms as seen in the poster at the top of this blog - you can actually own one of those original pieces of art! There are only 6 pieces of original art available for sale, and when these 6 are sold, that's it, they're all sold out.

These original watercolor paintings would make a great gift (birthday gift, anniversary gift, retirement gift, Christmas gift, etc.) for someone you love or even a great gift for yourself (one of these framed pieces would look fantastic in your home or office). Each piece can be bought one of three ways:

1. As unframed art that you could have framed or mounted yourself (the one on the left)

2. Framed in our "Classic" framed version (the middle version)

3. Framed in our "Deluxe" framed version (the version on the right)

If you would like more information about this great artwork including the three ways you could purchase each piece, please go directly to the Houston Texans artwork website where you can see and purchase the artwork.

And if someone you know loves the history of sports uniforms (but maybe another team) and loves great art, please let them know that we have over 1500 pieces of great original artwork for sale at www.heritagesportsart.com (all NFL teams, all MLB teams, all NHL teams, all CFL teams, select NCAA football teams) or check out each team's video at the Heritage Sports Art YouTube Channel www.youtube.com/user/ssillcox

E. Stadium artwork

Please note that the actual original, hand drawn pen and ink sketches used for the stadium image shown above are available for sale as a complete collection to one Houston Texans fan. If you are interested in being the owner of this original Houston Texans home stadium image, please contact me by email ssillcox@rogers.com and I can explain how it can be framed in one beautiful piece.

And please search my blog archive http://heritagejerseys.blogspot.com/ for other blogs on the history of NFL teams.
