March 28 (UPI) -- We learned two things about Brock Osweiler this week while he hit the links: he likes to listen to Justin Timberlake and he is quite jumpy when it comes to fake snakes.

Osweiler was traded to the Cleveland Browns earlier this month and has been involved in rumors to be moved again soon. The 26-year-old was one of the biggest busts in free agency last season after signing a four-year, $72 million contract with the Houston Texans.

But he did show that he still has some mobility left in the tank last weekend while golfing.

Osweiler was walking around his Justin-Timberlake-playing golf cart when he looked down and saw a spotted snake.

"Oh, whoa," the quarterback said, as he high stepped away from the fake creature.

After Osweiler's departure from Houston, reports surfaced that he got into a halftime altercation with head coach Bill O'Brien that sent his reputation over the edge with the team. Texans general manager Rick Smith told the Houston Chronicle Monday that he was surprised his team was able to pull of a trade.

Despite trade rumors swirling again, it appears the Browns are planning on going into the season with Osweiler on its roster.

Osweiler had just 11 career touchdown passes and six interceptions before entering the 2016 season. He was benched last season during a campaign, which included 15 touchdowns, 16 interceptions, and a 72.2 quarterback rating.
