After this past Sunday’s rough outing for veteran quarterback Tom Savage, it looks like Houston Texans’ head coach Bill O’Brien is preparing T.J. Yates just in case things continue to go south for their offense.
O’Brien said that Yates is getting some first-team reps during practice this week, in preparation for this Sunday’s game against the Los Angeles Rams.
“Not necessarily. Tom’s gotten some reps, T.J. got reps. I’m not saying it was 50-50, but I’d tell you that T.J. got some good reps. He got a decent amount. We’re just trying to get him back into the fold of running the offense and just gave him a decent amount of reps, not more than a normal No.
