The Film Room: Davis Mills’s First Start

Houston Texans rookie quarterback Davis Mills stepped into the starting role against Cleveland Thursday after Tyrod Taylor’s hamstrings hamstrung his career once again. It’s a tale as old as time, and one for Taylor that’s disappointing to hear, but it grants Texans fans the opportunity to get a glimpse of what Houston drafted in the third round of the 2021 NFL Draft.

Before the game, the broadcast team put up a quote about the young Stanford quarterback from star wide receiver Brandin Cooks:

He’s so even-keeled. When you get in the game in those situations, you never know if he’s nervous because he’s always the same, day in and day out.
