Who Should I Start? Davis Mills or E.J. Perry

Thursday, December 14, 1:19 PM

Signs are pointing to Houston Texans quarterback Davis Mills starting in Week 15 against the Tennessee Titans on Sunday with rookie C.J. Stroud (concussion) still in the league's concussion protocol on Thursday. Mills entered for a concussed Stroud in the Week 14 loss to the New York Jets and went only 1-for-5 for four yards in the fourth quarter. The 25-year-old is now likely to make his first start of 2023 this weekend, and he could be missing top wideout Nico Collins, who injured his calf last Sunday. Mills made 26 starts for the Texans the previous two seasons and completed 63.6% of his 873 attempts for 5,782 yards, 33 touchdowns and 25 interceptions in that span. Mills has experience as a starter but should only be considered a low-end QB2 streamer in superflex leagues against the Titans in Week 15.

With Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence in the league's concussion protocol this week, the team signed free-agent quarterback E.J. Perry to their practice squad on Tuesday, according to his agent. The Jaguars have only C.J. Beathard backing Lawrence up at the position, so Perry will give the Jags a little bit more insurance if Lawrence isn't cleared by doctors before their Week 16 contest versus the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday. The 25-year-old Perry has never appeared in an NFL game, but he has familiarity with Jacksonville's system after serving on their practice squad all of last year.
