The Houston Texans had a great thing going with rookie quarterback C.J. Stroud, and then a concussion hit when the No. 2 overall pick took a sack against the New York Jets in Week 14.
Stroud went from the MetLife Stadium surface to concussion protocol. Third-year Davis Mills, an emblem of the franchise’s on-field struggles the past two seasons, finished out the game. The former 2021 third-rounder may also start at the Tennessee Titans Sunday at 12:00 p.m. Central Time if Stroud isn’t able to clear protocol.
Midweek indications are Stroud won’t. Mills was spotted taking the first team snaps.
Here are some of the best social media reactions to come from Texans fans, who are no doubt heartbroken at the possibility of not having Stroud under center in Week 15.
A mess

Davis Mills is about to show why Bobby Slowik is a top tier OC. https://t.co/niAcGmsBZK

Davis Mills helps lead the Houston Texans to a victory on Sunday
He'll be apart of 2 of the biggest Wins in Houston Texans history. https://t.co/KZx6SB7UM6— CJ Anderson SzN 💫 (@AyooTexanNation) December 13, 2023
Davis Mills is basically ZW just w/o the expectations that comes with being a top 5 pick. Davis Mills was a bottom 5 QB as a starter. Which is why the Texans jumped at the chance to take Stroud & started him WK1. On paper Mills is already a very good QB2 and ZW is becoming one.
