There's no pressure on the Texans to use their first-round draft choice Thursday on a quarterback, according to general manager Rick Smith.
The Texans have two quarterbacks on the roster, Tom Savage and Brandon Weeden, and they're expected to use a high pick on a third one, possibly even a first-round selection.
In his annual state-of-the-Texans predraft news conference, Smith admitted they'll add a third quarterback, but he doesn't necessarily have to be a draft choice.
Smith reiterated what coach Bill O'Brien said earlier this month: He has confidence in Savage, who's battled injuries in each of his first three seasons.
