Houston Texans general manager Nick Caserio would not directly address the performance of quarterback Davis Mills through the first five games of the 2022 campaign.
Caserio met with reporters Tuesday during the team’s bye week to talk about the direction of the 1-3-1 squad. When asked to address Mills’ performance so far, Caserio diverted the topic to the overall performance of the team.
“I think overall as a team we just need to be more consistent with our performance,” Caserio said. “There’s been some good things, there’s been some things that we can certainly do better. To put Davis in that category, I think it’s more emblematic of the team more than anything else and making it about one player. Had some moments as a team. We could have better moments. If we do that, hopefully that’ll lead to more wins.”
Mills completed 104 passes on 166 attempts for 1,048 yards, five touchdowns, four interceptions, and has posted an 80.6 passer rating. The second-year signal caller from Stanford has also taken 12 sacks. Mills hasn’t been dynamic for Houston under center, but he has tried his best to not get the Texans beat. Nevertheless Houston will need a higher level of play from Mills when they return from their bye in Week 7 against the Las Vegas Raiders.
