Who's Got Your Back, Texans?
So, you wanna know who's the lucky stiff getting to watch C.J. Stroud's magic from the sidelines? Let's dive into the thrilling world of backup quarterbacks, or as I like to call them, the "Just in Case" Kennedys.
The Understudy
As of now, the honor (or misfortune, depending on how you look at it) of being C.J. Stroud's number two goes to Davis Mills. Now, before you start questioning your life choices and wondering why you're reading about backup quarterbacks, let's be clear: this is big-time stuff. We're talking about the guy who could potentially lead the Texans to glory if our golden boy gets injured, abducted by aliens, or simply decides to take up knitting.
Mills, a seasoned pro with all of three years in the league, has experienced the highs and lows of being a quarterback. He's thrown touchdowns, he's thrown interceptions, he’s probably even thrown a few wobbly passes that made receivers question their life choices. But hey, we all have those days, right?
The Backup's Burden
Being a backup quarterback is like being the understudy to a Broadway star. You spend your days practicing, hoping that the lead actor doesn't catch a cold, all while knowing that if you do get your chance in the spotlight, the entire world will be judging your every move. It's a tough gig, people.
So, let's give a round of applause to Davis Mills for taking on this monumental task. He's the unsung hero, the guy who's always ready to step up when called upon. And hey, who knows? Maybe one day he'll be the one leading the cheers from the sidelines.
