The Houston Texans have entered the 2015 NFL Preseason with two guys on the roster that head coach Bill O’Brien feels comfortable starting at the quarterback position. Both Ryan Mallett and Brian Hoyer have a history with the coach and were hand picked to be a part of the Texans as O’Brien shapes the roster to his liking.
The quarterbacks have split first team reps and will continue to share the load in the preseason. Hoyer started the first game and only played one series, finishing 2-4 passing with 67 although one pass went straight through receiver Alan Bonner‘s hands.
