An oil executive with Texas roots is reportedly Trump's top choice for Secretary of State.

A few of Trump's Transition Team members said Exxon Mobil CEO Rex Tillers is who the president-elect wants to take over the position.

Sources said Tillers and Trump met earlier this week to discuss the role.

Trump is also considering retired General David Piraeus and former republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney for the role.
