There were two tantrums thrown by quarterbacks during the Texans’ Week 17 loss in Tennessee last season. The first resulted from a player being too woozy to play, the next from a player being asked to play.

The dust is settling on Brock Osweiler’s one-year Texans stint, and the team is kicking him on his way out. According to a Pro Football Talk report, that game against the Titans — not any of the previous weeks of horrific Osweiler play — was when Houston realized it needed to move on from its $72 million mistake.

In an otherwise meaningless game — the Texans already had wrapped up the AFC South — Tom Savage, who had shrugged into the role Osweiler relinquished, was knocked out of the game and had to undergo a concussion evaluation. At halftime, according to the report, Savage was told doctors were shutting him down. Savage reacted in anger, throwing things in the locker room and creating a scene.

As Savage fumed about not being able to play, coach Bill O’Brien told Osweiler he would be going in. In a game that meant nothing, Osweiler, whom the Texans had given a four-year deal after a taste of success with Denver, balked at having to play.

According to a Pro Football Talk source, the 26-year-old told the coach he was only being asked to play because O’Brien needed him. The two argued, and the scene reportedly got vaguely physical — Osweiler tried to leave, and O’Brien threw out his arm to stop him. Osweiler would then claim he was being “held hostage.”

Osweiler did finish the game, finishing 21-of-40 for 253 yards and a touchdown, but was also finished in Houston. The Texans shipped him to Cleveland on Thursday in a trade that amounted to the Texans giving draft picks to the Browns to rid Osweiler’s salary from their books.

Osweiler has not yet commented about the alleged incident.
