The Houston Texans have their man: former Penn State head coach and New England Patriots coordinator Bill O’Brien. He took over the Penn State football sports program following Joe Paterno’s firing and the devil that is Jerry Sandusky. O’Brien turned the program around, leading to two straight winning seasons with sanctions that no coach would ever inherit. Now O’Brien will coach the Texans, a team filled with potential but also needing help at various positions.

Former Minnesota Vikings punter Chris Kluwe has been unemployed since the Oakland Raiders waived him in 2013. Kluwe, a man who stands up to those who discriminate against homosexuality and same-sex marriage, has been a pioneer in the NFL and beyond for marriage equality.

Kluwe tells all in his Deadspin piece, specifically how Leslie Frazier and general manager Rick Spielman are gutless while special teams coordinator Mike Priefer was titled a “bigot.” Kluwe believes he was cut for his outspoken nature and standing up for what is right. Kicker Blair Walsh has defended the coaching staff and stuck up for Priefer.
