C.J. Stroud — Active

Stroud threw a six-yard touchdown pass to Marvin Harrison in the final minute of the first half and added a two-point conversion to Cade Stover to tie the score at 14-14 heading into halftime. Houston's next points didn't come until the final minute of the fourth quarter, when Stroud found Xavier Hutchinson for a three-yard touchdown that sent the game to overtime. The Texans went three-and-out on the first possession of OT, and the Giants responded with a touchdown to drop the Texans to 2-5 heading into Houston's Week 8 bye. It's hard to blame Stroud for the team's poor record given his strong 11:1 TD:INT.

C.J. Stroud — Active

With Marvin Harrison making his Texans debut, Stroud spread the ball around to 10 different pass catchers as he set a new season high in TD passes and topped 300 yards for the third time in six games. The QB did throw his first INT of the season at a potentially crucial time, getting picked off by Travis Hunter in the end zone in the fourth quarter, but Stroud made up for it by putting together a game-winning field goal drive as time expired on his next possession. He'll take a 9:1 TD:INT into a Week 7 clash with the Giants.

InjuryActive17d ago

C.J. Stroud — Active

Neither team had gotten the ball into the end zone at halftime, but Stroud fixed that by scampering for a two-yard TD in the third quarter before finding Jaylin Noel for a nine-yard score in the fourth. Despite the Texans' 1-4 record, Stroud still has yet to throw an INT this season, compiling a 6:0 TD:INT in five games, and he hasn't committed a turnover since Week 1. The fourth-year QB also has reinforcements coming for his receiving corps after Houston traded for Marvin Harrison on Sunday. Stroud will look to build on this performance in a Week 6 clash with the Jaguars.

InjuryActive24d ago

C.J. Stroud — Active

With top receiver Nico Collins back in the fold after a hamstring strain, Stroud posted his best numbers of the season -- he threw for 353 yards in Week 2, but it came on 55 attempts and he didn't produce a TD. Both of Stroud's scores Sunday went to Collins, and through four games he has a 5:0 TD:INT, with his only two turnovers being a pair of Week 1 fumbles. The fourth-year QB will try to lead Houston to its first win of the year in a Week 5 road trip to Tennessee.

InjuryActive31d ago

C.J. Stroud — Active

Houston's offense struggled for a second consecutive week in the absence of top wide receiver Nico Collins (hamstring). Stroud threw a one-yard touchdown pass to Foster Moreau in the second quarter, but the Texans dropped to 0-3 for the second consecutive season. Houston bounced back to finish 12-5 in the 2025 regular season, but climbing out of an early hole again won't be easy, especially with the offensive line struggling to create running lanes or protect Stroud, who has been sacked 10 times through three games. Stroud will try to get off the schneid in an all-Texas Week 4 home game against the Cowboys.
