C.J. Stroud completed 26-of-34 passes for 261 yards and a touchdown in Houston’s 26-3, Week 5 win over the Titans.
He added a rushing touchdown on a goal-to-go red zone keeper. The Texans offense continues to bog down with penalties and bad runs — they went into half with four field goals — but Stroud was able to pilot the ship well enough to keep things reasonable until the Titans defense broke in the second half. He’ll head to London next week to face the Jaguars, yet another team that should keep him throwing given how good their run defense is, so he’ll be a mid-range QB2 for that one.
