    Texans Coach Bill O'Brien Doesn't Take Ultimatums

    Just ask D.J Swearinger:

    Word of the Texans' possible unhappiness with D.J. Swearinger first went public a couple of weeks ago. Earlier today, the team, presumably unable to find another team willing to surrender an asset for the 2013 second round pick, released Swearinger. In the post reporting the move, Brett mentioned "... rumors that Swearinger walked out of special teams meetings last season because he felt that his status as a second round pick precluded him from playing on the special teams unit."

    Rumors swirling that he actually said this directly to the coach. If that's true, he's going to have to work long and hard to ever have a chance at a good contract again.

    Ryan Mallett will come out of nowhere this year if he can avoid injuries. I like the fact that this coach is not going to put up with any of this juvenile bullshit. I read that they thought Swearinger, being from the same college team as Clowney, might be a bad influence on him (if Clowney could ever play a full season).

    #1 picks should be influencers not influencees.
