Rumors have begun circulating about a potential switch at the quarterback position for the Houston Texans, but head coach Lovie Smith told reporters after Sunday’s loss to the New York Giants that nothing is in the cards to that effect at the moment. While Davis Mills’ job may be secure for the foreseeable future, the media was unrelenting in their effort to question him about the possibility of getting benched following his mediocre performance against the Giants given Smith’s willingness to make changes at other positions.
To his credit, Mills took the queries in stride and made every effort to be diplomatic in his responses to the speculation regarding his future as the Texans’ starter. He emphasized that protecting the football is his primary concern. and made it clear that the team is ready to get their second win of the season against the Washington Commanders in Week 11.
