The Texans have named Tom Savage their starting quarterback moving forward.
Part of Bill O'Brien's first draft class as Texans head coach, Savage was a much-maligned prospect inside the Twitter draftnik community, but NFL personnel types loved his combination of size and arm strength. He wound up being drafted in the fourth round and has posted an 8:1 TD-to-INT ratio over the last two preseasons. Savage has spent three full years in O'Brien's system.
The Texans have a top-ten defense and an at-times explosive running game. They just need competent play from Savage.
