He joined the Texans after spending 20 seasons with the Patriots, including 18 in player personnel. During his time with New England, the team won six Super Bowl titles, which is tied for the most by any NFL franchise in league history.

Caserio has shown a willingness to be both aggressive and progressive with the team-building approach. The Texans executed more trades than any team in the NFL since hiring Caserio, including a franchise-record eight during the 2023 NFL Draft. Caserio spent the first three seasons laying the foundation for the program with the acquisition of key veterans along with three draft classes who made impactful contributions to team.

His steadfast approach helped land Head Coach DeMeco Ryans in 2023, and the two working alongside each other paved the way to a 10-7 record and a Texans playoff berth for the first time since 2019. Houston won their seventh AFC South title and became the first team in NFL history to win their division with a rookie quarterback and first-year head coach. A part of the team's success in 2023 was a credit to Caserio's vision in the 2023 NFL Draft, selecting future Offensive Rookie of the Year QB C.J. Stroud with the No. 2 overall pick and facilitating a trade to move up to No. 3 overall to acquire the future Defensive Rookie of the Year in DE Will Anderson Jr.

In his 20 seasons with New England, the Patriots made the Super Bowl nine times with six wins, captured 17 AFC East division titles and were a playoff team every year except for 2002, 2008 and 2020. Caserio was instrumental in drafting, signing and developing players who were essential pieces of one of the most successful dynasties in NFL history. Caserio was named the director of player personnel in 2008 after serving in a number of roles for the personnel department and coaching staff.

Following a three-year stint as the team's director of pro personnel (2004-06), Caserio coached the Patriots wide receivers in 2007, in which the offense helped break the NFL record for points scored (589) en route to an undefeated regular season.

Caserio joined the Patriots in June 2001 as a personnel assistant. During that season, his role was expanded to include film breakdown and scouting report preparation for the offensive staff. He became an offensive coaching assistant in February 2002 and returned to player personnel in 2003 as an area scout prior to becoming director of pro personnel in 2004. In addition to his duties in the personnel department, Caserio handled coaching booth responsibilities for the coaching staff on game days.

Caserio entered the coaching ranks as a graduate assistant at Saginaw Valley State University in 1999 and spent two seasons with the program. He joined the Patriots scouting department following a brief time with Central Michigan as a graduate assistant in the spring of 2001.

Caserio was a standout quarterback at John Carroll University, as the Blue Streaks compiled a 33-7-2 record in the four seasons he started for the team. He was a two-time captain and three-time All-Conference performer. In 1997, Caserio helped lead the team to a 10-2 record and the school's second appearance in the NCAA Division III Tournament, where it advanced to the national quarterfinals.

Caserio grew up in Lyndhurst, Ohio. He earned his degree in finance from John Carroll and later earned his master's degree of business administration from Saginaw Valley State. Caserio was a three-time Academic All-Conference selection at John Carroll. Caserio and his wife, Kathleen, have three daughters, Whitley, Chatham and Charleston.
