Final answer:
The Houston Texans did not exist as another team prior to their establishment in 2002; they are an expansion team created to replace Houston's former team, the Oilers, who moved to Tennessee.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Houston Texans are an expansion team, which means that they were created as a new franchise and do not have a history of being another team before their establishment in 2002. They were not a result of a previous team relocating, rebranding, or renaming.
The Texans were introduced to restore an NFL team to Houston after the city's previous team, the Houston Oilers, relocated to Tennessee and became the Tennessee Titans.
