Texans' Jadeveon Clowney penalized at worst possible time
Barking out a hard count late in the fourth quarter, Indianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck managed to draw Texans Pro Bowl outside linebacker Jadeveon Clowney offsides.
Although the neutral-zone infraction wasn't the deciding factor in the Texans' 24-21 loss Sunday at NRG Stadium, the automatic first down effectively ended any hope of a game-tying or game-winning comeback.
When Clowney jumped on 3rd-and-1, it set the stage for Luck to kneel down three times to end the game. Clowney declined interview requests after the game inside the Texans' locker room.
