On March 24, the Los Angeles Rams face ongoing questions at backup quarterback behind Matthew Stafford, especially with Jimmy Garabolo's future. Unclear. One idea gaining traction is trading for Houston Texans back up Davis Mills, a 27-year-old in a contract year who could provide a solid option. Mills stepped up big last season, going three wins and no losses when filling in for rookie sensation, CJ Stroud. He threw for 915 yards, five touchdowns against just one interception, and posted an 81.6 pass rating. Fans and analysts see Mills as a reliable veteran who keeps teams competitive. His key moment came in a week-ten comeback against the Jaguars, where Houston trailed by 19 before rallying back with his three total. Touchdowns sparking a 10-game winning streak. The Texans trust Mills after three seasons handing him the offense when needed, but with Stroud's extension looming, they might deal him before free, agency.

He's shown he can manage gains without flash, perfect for backup role. For the Rams, landing Mills would plug their biggest remaining hole, ensuring stability of Stafford misses time and letting them push for another. Strong playoff run.
