Keyshawn Johnson: Houston Texans already know CJ Stroud is the starting QB
Houston Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans has yet to name a starting quarterback at this point in the offseason. There's still plenty of time for that with it only being June.
But Keyshawn Johnson believes in the back of their minds, the Texans know CJ Stroud will be the starter when week one rolls around. Johnson goes on to say that based on his experience, teams rotate QBs in minicamp just to get a look at everyone. So that shouldn't be a cause for concern with Davis Mills taking snaps.
However, at some point, it would be in the team's best interest to make sure Stroud gets most of the reps with the first team. Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence is a good example of when splitting the reps for too long could come back to haunt the player in his rookie season.
The Jags knew Lawrence would be the starter, but Gardner Minshew received a lot of the reps with the ones, which upset some of the players, and possibly stunted Lawrence's development.
