A 5 year old quarter horse opens his mouth wide. Is this suggesting a problem?

i am looking at a green broke quarter almost 5 years. When close to his head, or when his jaw area is scratched he opens his mouth real wide for 20 seconds or so turns his head side ways. Also curls his lips up and when done hangs his tongue out for a few seconds is this normal behavior?

    Don't know much about horses, but I love them. Sounds like he may just be yawning- or trying to pop his ears. Rub his ears and see if he objects or lays into it. Could be he's just trying to make you smile.
