Without injured rookie running back Dameon Pierce, the Texans' running game will turn to veterans Rex Burkhead and Dare Ogunbowale and dual-threat quarterback Jeff Driskel to pick up the slack. AaronWilson_NFL
One way the Texans may try to manufacture more rushing yards is with backup quarterback Jeff Driskel zone read plays. At 6-foot-4, 235 pounds, Driskel is a dual-threat quarterback who has excellent speed and ran the 40-yard dash in 4.46 seconds when he entered the league. He rushed for 36 yards and threw a touchdown against the Cowboys.
“Once a player is not on our team, I try not to talk too much about it when they move on,” Smith said. “We just thought we need to go a different direction. Just going to leave it at that. Sometimes divorce is a good thing.” “Dameon is a great player,” Texans quarterback Davis mills said. “It’s going to be tough not having him this week, but we have a lot of guys who are talented and ready to step up in that room and make plays. It’s kind of that next man up mentality. We’re ready for anyone to go up and start taking those touches.”
