Historical Figures
Founder, Chairman & CEO
Robert C. McNair founded the Houston Texans after paying a then-record $700 million expansion fee in 1999 to bring the NFL back to Houston following the Oilers' departure. A self-made billionaire who built his fortune in the energy industry through Cogen Technologies, McNair was the driving force behind the construction of NRG Stadium and the establishment of Houston as a premier NFL city. He passed away on November 23, 2018, at the age of 81.
