The Houston Texans weren’t too sure about Davis Mills in 2021.
The team gave first-team quarterback reps to Tyrod Taylor throughout the offseason workout program and training camp. Taylor was also the starter for the first two weeks of the regular season until a hamstring strain compelled Houston to start their third-round rookie from Stanford.
Mills ultimately went 2-9 as a starter with a 2-3 record down the final five games, including a 41-29 win over the playoff-hunting Los Angeles Chargers. The rookie posted a 9-2 touchdown to interception ratio with a 102.4 passer rating.
