Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud remains in concussion protocol and after missing practice on Monday his chances of playing Thursday are slim.

Serving as the backup quarterback to C.J. Stroud with the Houston Texans, Mills has gotten the chance to start the last couple of games with Stroud dealing with a concussion. And as the starter, Mills has delivered two memorable performances, including another big-time victory over the Tennessee Titans in Week 11.

All the ways you can watch, stream, and tune-in to Week 12 between the Texans and the Buffalo Bills at NRG Stadium on November 20.

Fans in the Buffalo TV market can watch the game on WKBW Channel 7. Coverage starts at 7:30 p.m. with a special pregame edition of Leading The Charge.

For as much as elite edge rushing partners Danielle Hunter and Will Anderson Jr. continued to amass sacks on Sunday against Titans rookie Cam Ward, diligent rush lane integrity will be the key priority against Buffalo.

In Week 12, the Buffalo Bills and Khalil Shakir play the Houston Texans at NRG Stadium in Houston, Texas. Kickoff is set for 8:15 p.m. ET on Thursday. Shakir shows up on the injury list this week (did not participate in practice, personal), but does not have a game status on the latest report.

Houston Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans did not stray from his messaging on Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen.

Houston Texans quarterback Davis Mills will start against the Titans on Nov. 16 as C.J. Stroud remains out with a concussion, DeMeco Ryans said.
