In the aftermath of Hurricane Beryl's impact on southeast Texas, Houston's NRG Stadium, home to the Houston Texans, may have suffered damage to its retractable roof. Eyewitness News crews spotted what appears to be a hole in a grooved section of the venue's roof on Monday.

Officials from NRG Stadium have been contacted for a damage assessment report, but they stated that they are still awaiting a full assessment before disclosing any specific details regarding the extent of the damage caused by Hurricane Beryl. The storm made landfall in Matagorda County as a Category 1 hurricane with winds reaching 80 mph before moving north-northeast through Houston.

During the arrival of Hurricane Beryl, wind gusts of approximately 60 mph were recorded in the NRG Park area, as reported by ABC13. Multiple crews also captured visuals of the apparent roof damage at NRG Stadium following the storm's landfall on July 8, 2024.

It is worth noting that this 22-year-old stadium has faced similar challenges in the past. Hurricane Ike, a Category 2 hurricane that made landfall in September 2008, caused significant damage to the retractable roof. Chunks of the roof were torn off by the storm, resulting in the postponement of an upcoming Ravens-Texans game.

As the assessment of the damage caused by Hurricane Beryl continues, NRG Stadium officials will be closely monitoring the situation to determine the necessary repairs and ensure the safety of the venue. Fans and football enthusiasts will eagerly await updates on the status of the stadium and any potential impacts on future events.

Stay tuned for further information as NRG Stadium prepares to address the aftermath of Hurricane Beryl and restore normal operations.
