Ranking Texans rookies in terms of importance

The Houston Texans have 14 rookies on their roster, and each will have a challenging time making the team, fighting for playing time.

14. QB Nick Tiano

The 2020 training camp and preseason is especially inequitable for undrafted quarterbacks such as Tiano. The former Chattanooga product won’t get a chance in games to lead drives or mount comebacks. He won’t even get the opportunity to go against another squad in a joint practice. Tiano is the fourth quarterback on the roster behind Deshaun Watson, A.J. McCarron, and Alex McGough. “Camp arm” is an understatement, but maybe Tiano can make a case of his own to give him a shot when constructing the practice squad at the end of training camp.
