Texans LB Whitney Mercilus retweets negative comment about own team

The Houston Texans are so bad this season that their own players are sharing negative stuff about the team on social media.

On Sunday, Houston Chronicle writer John McClain tweeted a comment about the Astros that wasn’t exactly flattering for the 1-4 Texans. Did linebacker Whitney Mercilus agree with it? Here’s a screenshot that was captured by CBS Houston before Mercilus deleted his retweet:

It’s possible that Mercilus made a mistake, as he has been showcasing his support for the Astros via Twitter.

Go ASTROS!

— Whitney Mercilus (@Merci380) October 7, 2015

The more likely scenario is that Mercilus is frustrated, and rightfully so. The Texans couldn’t even win a home game against a team with an injured starting quarterback and a backup quarterback who may have been in even worse shape leading up to Thursday. These are not happy times in Houston.
