Quarterback Brock Osweiler and his teammates are eager to see how they'll do in practice Friday and in their first preseason game Sunday against San Francisco.
After eight practices, including six outdoors in the heat and humidity, the Texans are ready to travel to Santa Clara, Calif., where the Monday high was 81. It's supposed to be 82 Friday and 84 Sunday.
"I can't wait," Osweiler said after Monday's practice in their bubble. "It's hard because you don't want to look too far ahead. We have another practice (Tuesday), and then we go into an off day (Wednesday) and then another practice (Thursday morning) before we fly out to San Francisco.
