Taylor effective in lone series as Texans beat Packers 26-7

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — Tyrod Taylor went 4 of 4 for 40 yards in his lone series and rookie quarterback Davis Mills led a couple of scoring drives for the Houston Texans in a 26-7 preseason victory over the Green Bay Packers on Saturday.

Although the circumstances surrounding Green Bay’s Aaron Rodgers and Houston’s Deshaun Watson have been two of the NFL’s biggest offseason stories, neither played Saturday as the spotlight shifted to the other quarterbacks on each team.

Taylor, the Texans’ likely starter if Watson isn’t available, led a 53-yard drive that resulted in one of Ka'imi Fairbairn's four field goals.
