Houston Texans head coach Gary Kubiak collapsed at halftime of the team’s Sunday Night Football match up against the Indianapolis Colts and was taken off of the field to a stretcher. Kubiak was taken to the hospital where he is conscious and currently with his family.
It was a sobering moment that took the team by absolute shock, which caused the Texans to cancel their scheduled halftime show.
Friend @bmckenzie98 texted me from @HoustonTexans game. Said they cancelled halftime show. Stadium quiet / in the dark about GK condition.

According to NBC sideline reporter Michelle Tafoya, Kubiak never lost consciousness and the team is saying that he was taken to the hospital as a precautionary measure.
Tafoya did indicate that Kubiak was in a lot of pain when he collapsed, but there has been no more information on his status provided.
