HOUSTON -- Texans coach Gary Kubiak collapsed on the field as he was leaving at halftime of Houston's Sunday night game against the Indianapolis Colts.
Kubiak was taken to a local hospital in an ambulance with his family and was conscious, according to the Texans. Defensive coordinator Wade Phillips took over in the interim.
Kubiak lay on the ground for several minutes and was surrounded by medical personnel, including Texans head trainer Geoff Kaplan. After a few minutes, Kubiak sat up and spoke with those surrounding him with a grimace on his face. The coach then laid down again so he could be strapped to a stretcher and taken off the field.
Kubiak has been the Texans' coach since the 2006 season. Houston led 21-3 at halftime.
