Week 3 of the 2021 NFL season kicks off Thursday night when the Houston Texans play host to Christian McCaffery and the Carolina Panthers. The Panthers, who are off to a 2-0 start behind the solid play of Sam Darnold under center, will look to send a short-handed Texans club to their second consecutive defeat. After splitting their first two games, the Texans will be forced to start rookie David Mills after losing starting quarterback Tyrod Taylor due to a hamstring injury.
