Who is Texans' backup QB? Depth chart comes into focus as C.J. Stroud struggles vs. Patriots image

The Houston Texans are playing the New England Patriots in the divisional round of the playoffs on Saturday, and quarterback C.J. Stroud is having a rough day.

Stroud has tossed three interceptions and is completing under 50% of his passes so far. The 24-year-old is holding Houston back and wasting a fantastic performance by the Texans' defense.

With Stroud struggling, the team's quarterback depth chart is now coming into focus.

Who is Texans' backup quarterback?

The Texans' backup quarterback is Davis Mills

Mills started three games during the regular season, winning all of his starts while tossing five touchdowns to one interception.

If Stroud continues to struggle against the Patriots, it's not out of the question that head coach DeMeco Ryans pulls his franchise quarterback and opts to go with Mills.
