In the 24-season history of the Texans, they've had only one comeback bigger than the 19-point deficit they overcame in beating the Jaguars on Sunday.

Then the tides turned. Mills threw touchdowns to Jayden Higgins and Dalton Schultz, and the Texans forced three and outs following both drives. Then, down 29-24, Mills produced a 14-yard run to give the hosts an improbable 30-29 lead. It was his first touchdown run since 2022.

The Houston Texans and Davis Mills put together a miraculous comeback win over the Jacksonville Jaguars.

With a win, Sunday would prove the NFL truly doesn't make sense when a backup quarterback takes over as the starter in a must-have outing. That's what Davis Mills hopes to accomplish this week at NRG Stadium against an AFC South rival.

The Texans managed just five field goals in an 18-15 loss to the Denver Broncos on Sunday to fall to 3-5. Stroud sustained a concussion early in the second quarter when the back of his head bounced violently off the ground following a hard hit as he was sliding.
