After Thursday's joint practice with the Miami Dolphins, Houston Texans Chair and CEO Cal McNair fired up his grill for fans. The Texans Chair and CEO grilled burgers and hot dogs for hungry fans and media attending the final open practice of camp this year at Cal's Cookout presented by H-E-B.
"By the way, we're cooking burgers," McNair said to fans before practice. "If anyone wants a burger, swing by over here. We'll be cooking burgers and hot dogs. Thanks and we're excited for the season and our first game coming up. We'll be ready for it. And appreciate you guys, we're here for you. Thank you."
Sports Radio 610 hosts Sean Pendergast and Ron Hughley, along with Texans Wire beat reporter Brian Barefield (a.k.a. Big Sarge), assisted McNair at the grill outside the Houston Methodist Training Center. McNair took breaks to chat with fans and sign autographs. Cal's Cookout presented by H-E-B was a family event with Houston Texans Foundation Vice President Hannah McNair, the McNair children and TORO handing out orders to happy customers.
