Tom Savage has the confidence of Texans' coaching staff
Houston Texans starting quarterback Tom Savage holds tremendous upside, despite being unproven, according to the head coach Bill O'Brien.
What It Means:
Savage enters Week 1 as the unquestioned starter in Houston despite not throwing a touchdown pass in the regular season, in his career. He also has first-round pick DeShaun Watson lurking over his shoulder, but coach O'Brien feels good about Savage, saying 'he has a good command of what we do.'
Our models project Savage for just 14.1 FanDuel points against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 1, making him our 26th-best quarterback option in DFS while costing just $6,500.
