The Facts: Osweiler agreed to terms with the Houston Texans on Wednesday. Executive VP/GN John Elway kept the lines of negotiation open, but in the end, Osweiler wanted to move on after four years in Denver. "We've stayed true to our philosophy of building a team with players who want to be Denver Broncos and want to be here. That's been a successful approach for us," he said.

Diehards Line: Houston is reportedly paying Osweiler $72 million over four years, including $37 million guaranteed. Despite having just seven career starts, the Texans reportedly gave Osweiler more guaranteed money than all but eight quarterbacks. Osweiler will receive more initially guaranteed money than a slew of quarterbacks, including New England's Tom Brady. With Osweiler gone and Peyton Manning retiring, Trevor Siemian is the only quarterback on the current roster. But there are options in free agency and the draft, and the Broncos could pursue trade avenues, as well. Remember: The Broncos won Super Bowl 50 despite having the second-lowest team passing efficiency rating -- a combined 74.3 rating for the regular season and postseason, 13.5 points lower than the league average of 87.8. Only the then-St. Louis Rams had a worse collective quarterback rating. ... Stay tuned. We'll be watching for the team's next moves in the coming days.
