Brock Osweiler 'prepared and ready,' but will Texans need him?

NASHVILLE, Tenn. -- Quarterback Brock Osweiler didn’t know if he’d get the chance to play another snap for the Houston Texans this season, but he made sure he was prepared to jump back in if he was needed.

Osweiler, whom the Texans signed to a four-year, $72 million contract in the offseason in hopes of ending their quarterback carousel, came in for Tom Savage early in the second quarter after Savage left the game with a concussion.

Just two games earlier, Osweiler was benched for Savage after he threw two first-half interceptions against the Jacksonville Jaguars.
