An NFL Insider weighs in on Davis Mills' Houston Texans future!?
ProFootballTalk's Mike Florio catches up with ESPN Houston's The Wheelhouse and shares his thoughts about the upcoming NFL season, the Houston Texans, and much more!
Plus, Florio finally answers the million-dollar question for Texans fans. No matter how much the Texans publicly and privately say they want to give Davis Mills a chance to prove himself this year, Florio links every possible QB fit with the Texans. First it was Jimmy Garoppolo and lately it's been former Vikings QB Kellen Mond.
His reason being, teams that don't have a franchise QB are always doing everything they can to get one in the building, and the Texans are no different. Plus, the Texans would act the exact same way publicly, even it they didn't believe in Mills privately.
Be sure to check out the video above as Florio elaborates on his stance, and shares his expectations for Mills and the Texans in 2022.

Oswald Peraza hit a two-run single in the ninth inning to help the Los Angeles Angels snap a three-game losing skid by beating the Houston Astros 4-1 on Saturday night.
Peraza entered the game as a defensive replacement in the seventh inning and hit a bases-loaded fly ball to deep right field that eluded the outstretched glove of Cam Smith. It was the fourth straight hit off Astros closer Bryan Abreu (3-4), who had not allowed a run in his previous 12 appearances.
The Angels third run of the ninth inning scored when Mike Trout walked with the bases loaded.
Kyle Hendricks allowed one run while scattering seven hits over six innings. He held the Astros to 1 for 8 with runners in scoring position, the one hit coming on Jesús Sánchez’s third-inning infield single that scored Jeremy Peña.
Reid Detmers worked around a leadoff walk to keep the Astros scoreless in the seventh, and José Fermin (3-2) retired the side in order in the eighth before Kenley Jansen worked a scoreless ninth to earn his 24th save.
