Who Should I Start? Trey Lance or Davis Mills

Sunday, August 10, 9:00 PM

Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Trey Lance started the second quarter of the team's 27-13 preseason win against the New Orleans Saints and eventually led a 14-play, 85-yard scoring drive towards the end of the half. The 25-year-old, a former first-round pick, got it done more with his legs than his arm, completing seven of 14 passes for 55 yards through the air while rushing for 48 yards and a touchdown on seven carries. Although he was up and down with his accuracy and had a fumbled snap, Lance looked confident and poised, building off the momentum he gained in the Hall of Fame Game last week. Overall, Lance easily outplayed backup Taylor Heinicke and made a strong case to be Justin Herbert's primary backup this season.

Houston Texans quarterback Davis Mills is expected to start in Saturday's preseason opener against the Minnesota Vikings. Mills has started 26 games with the Texans in his four-year career, totaling 6,167 yards, with 35 touchdowns and 25 interceptions. With starting quarterback C.J. Stroud sitting out, Mills will get the nod for the Texans. He was listed as the the second quarterback in the Texans' unofficial depth chart with rookie quarterback Graham Mertz as the third string. Mills will suit up alongside rookie playmakers Jayden Higgins and Jaylin Noel, as he looks to cement his backup quarterback role.
