Davis Mills had the unenviable task to move a Houston Texans offense that had a run-first philosophy but was largely ineffective at establishing the running game.
The third-rounder from Stanford posted a 2-9 record, but had an encouraging 2-3 record down the final five-game stretch of the season when the coaching staff decided to see what he had to offer after Tyrod Taylor couldn’t get the job done following an eight-week hamstring injury.
According to Gregg Rosenthal of NFL.com, who compiled a ranking of all quarterbacks this season, Mills made the list at No. 31.
