""The whole team had faith we were going to win that game the entire time," Mills said. "I think our team is very confident in our own abilities. We have a lot of players who can make plays. And we just needed to get things clicking.""
"With starting quarterback C.J. Stroud sidelined with a concussion, Houston overcame a 19-point deficit in the second half to defeat the Jacksonville Jaguars, 36-29. Mills had three fourth quarter touchdowns, capped by a 14-yard scoring run with 31 seconds left."
Backup quarterback Davis Mills made his first start since Jan. 8, 2023, and led Houston to a 36-29 victory after C.J. Stroud was sidelined with a concussion. Mills threw an interception on the opening drive but then passed for 292 yards after that possession and produced three fourth-quarter touchdowns, including a 14-yard scoring run with 31 seconds remaining. The Texans overcame a 19-point second-half deficit, a comeback tied for the largest this season and the second-largest in team history. Early miscues for Jacksonville — including a Tremon Smith kickoff fumble and a 73-yard punt-return touchdown by Parker Washington — helped build the early lead that Houston erased.
