HOUSTON -- When you’re an offensive lineman, left guard Xavier Su'a-Filo joked, it’s hard to buy a suit off the rack. 

So for Christmas, Houston Texans quarterback Brock Osweiler fixed that issue for those who protect him, buying his offensive linemen custom suits.

“The offensive line in my eyes has done a tremendous job this year,” Osweiler said. “ There’s been multiple games where there’s been no sacks, there’s been multiple games where there’s very few hits, if any.  And so I just really appreciate what those guys do.  Playing in the trenches, playing on the offensive line, you don’t get a lot of credit. 

“But you’re going out there every day and you’re getting beat up.  A lot of those guys this time a year are put together with duct tape and glue, it seems like.  And so it was a way to say thank you and my appreciation for those guys.” 

Su’a-Filo said his suit was the first custom suit he has owned; he usually just gets them tailored. 

“It was cool,” Su’a-Filo said. “ It was very generous of him to get that for us.  I like mine.  I got a light gray pinstripe.” 

For the fitting, Osweiler brought in someone from Colorado who brought in patterns, designs, base colors and other options so the group could pick out what they wanted. 

“Since I don’t have much style, I chose the color suite I wanted and she helped me choose the rest,” Su’a-Filo said with a laugh. 

“I went to church this past Sunday and I wore it, and I was feeling it.”
