Quarterback Brandon Jackson will sign with the Houston Texans for a one year deal for the league minimum, a source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.

After the Houston Texans signed quarterback Brock Osweiler in March, coach Bill O’Brien pointed out that one of the things he likes about his quarterback is his strong arm.

But in Monday’s 27-9 loss to the Denver Broncos, he was unable to take advantage of it.

Osweiler was 0-for-7 on passes that were 15 yards or more downfield. According to ESPN Stats & Information, there were just three games this season in which a quarterback has gone 0-for-7 or worse on those throws, and Osweiler has two of them. The other came in Week 5 against the Minnesota Vikings.

Osweiler said he had a few opportunities to complete deep passes, but he overthrew his receivers on those plays.

“[Throwing downfield] is part of this offense,” Osweiler said. “We try to hit our running backs underneath. We try to hit our tight ends underneath. We like to push the football down the field, and we weren’t able to do that tonight.”

Osweiler finished 22-for-41 for 131 yards, without a touchdown or an interception. His 131 passing yards were the second-fewest in NFL history by a quarterback who attempted at least 40 passes, according to the Elias Sports Bureau. Only Jesse Palmer, who threw for 110 yards on 43 attempts in 2003, has had fewer.

“Give credit where credit is due,” Osweiler said. “The Denver Broncos' defense is a hell of a unit. They are very well coached. They play extremely hard, their chemistry is great and their communication is great. They play extremely fast and they’re physical. They just played better than us tonight.”

Jackson who comes in at 6'3 190, is a bit undersized for the NFL. Although scouts have raved over the talent Jackson possess. He has the ability to play WR in short field situation where Osweiler won't have to make deep throws.

    whale spotted in illinois river A humpback whale was spotted near Morris IL in the Illinois River today. The sighting comes just days after 2 Great White Sharks were seen frolicking in the same area. While not impossible, it does seem unlikely. It is thought that the whale may have followed the sharks as they sometimes do in the wild. The whale would of had to travel over 1250 miles to get to this location. The Marine Biologist Association will be in town for a full investigation. Until we have answers, we are asking folks to keep their pontoons and fishing boats docked.

    two great white sharks found swimming in mississippi river near saint louis, missouri. While it is not entirely impossible, it is incredibly uncommon for salt water dwelling creatures to stay for lengthy periods of time in fresh water. However, two Great White Sharks have managed to survive the trip and make their way up the Mississippi River somehow. Believed to have started as a mating couple, the two are assumed to have swam the 920 mile journey from the mouth of the Mississippi River that is connected to the Gulf Of Mexico. Officials in Saint Louis have contacted the Missouri Conservation Department and will likely have a team in the river soon to capture the two lost sharks.
