Texans coach Gary Kubiak collapses along sideline

Houston Texans coach Gary Kubiak, 52, collapsed as he was walking off the field at halftime of the team's game with the Indianapolis Colts.

Kubiak was put on a backboard and stretcher and sent to a hospital, though the team would not identify which one to NBC.

Texans assistant coaches were told that taking Kubiak to a hospital was a precautionary measure and that he did not have a heart attack, NBC reported. He did not lose consciousness and his family was with him at the hospital.

"He had an episode; he was light-headed and dizzy," Houston general manager Rick Smith said in an interview on NBC. "He was evaluated by a number of specialists … he is awake and coherent.

"We have to assess … obviously, there's a lot of info," Smith said. "Hopefully, Gary will be back with us tomorrow."
