For the past 24 hours, it has been easy to picture Brock Osweiler standing on a stage next to Ryan Seacrest or some other forgettable face in a suit, celebrating his new contract from the Houston Texans. Maybe there is a single tear of joy sliding down his cheek as he receives overwhelming applause from his new fanbase. Maybe he drops to his knees and throws his hands in the air, unleashing all of the emotion that has been built up over the past few months.
It's not that Osweiler's Robert Pattinson-like facial features make him an ideal stage actor; it's that his career arc resembles that of someone who won X Factor, American Idol, or The Voice.
