As prolific as Texans Pro Bowl outside linebacker Jadeveon Clowney can be as a run-stopper and pass rusher, he's also piling up some unwanted statistics.

Clowney has been penalized eight times this season, including a pair of taunting penalties, two offsides calls, two neutral zone infractions and an encroachment flag.

He was penalized for offsides and taunting Sunday during a win over the Buffalo Bills.

“Guys that play like he does – he plays the game in a really attacking way, and so people are going to use their cadence against him and he’s just got to be really focused on that," Texans coach Bill O'Brien said. "Then, the taunting call, like somebody asked me if I’m going to – yeah, I’ll talk to him about it, but I’m not going to go down the road of what.

"I think he just was just kind of messing around with the guy, but you can’t do that. You can’t do that, and that’s what they called and we’ll make sure that he knows not to do that anymore.”
