Lovie Smith doesn't anticipate Nick Caserio being involved with the Houston Texans' game day plans.

David Culley admitted that Caserio regularly communicated with him during games last season.

In an interview with Rich Eisen this week, Smith made it clear he doesn't expect Caserio to participate in any discussions during games.

"People do it a lot of different ways," Smith said. "I've been the head football coach for a long period of time. I haven't had the general manager involved on gameday and don't plan on it. Things were done differently at different places. We have a system that we're pretty comfortable with here. Nick and I have talked about that. Nick's going to be available to help in any way that we think he should. We feel pretty good about that."
