Even on Sunday afternoons in which the Texans’ offense is slightly off-rhythm, there’s one duo that almost always feels poised for a game-changing play: C.J. Stroud and his 6-foot-4 Pro Bowler. Keenly aware of where his 1,000-yard wideout resided with Houston trailing by a touchdown during Sept. 21, 2025’s fourth quarter, Stroud again put the connection on showcase, eventually reaping benefits with a 50-yard score. Jacksonville’s late-game execution encouraged a 17-10 win, but Stroud added to his highlight reel against the Jaguars through a 25-of-38 passing effort, alongside 204 yards, one touchdown, and 22 rushing yards (on four carries).
