On Sunday, the Houston Texans hit the field at home for their first game of the new season against Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills. This is in many ways a “prove it” year for Texans quarterback CJ Stroud ,

The Texans QB was the reason Houston even had a chance to beat Buffalo, but do his turnovers continue to discount his progress?

Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud reportedly won't receive a new contract until the 2026 season comes to a close.

Even after the coming season, there may be no reason for the Texans to rush it. Stroud remains under contract through 2027. They’d be negotiating against themselves, like the Dolphins did when they gave Tua Tagovailoa what turned out to be a disastrous the-market-is-the-market deal in 2024.

“I am worried about the Houston Texans,” Bruschi said on the set of ESPN’s “Sunday NFL Countdown.” “C.J. Stroud coming off of that playoff loss in New England and what he did this offseason in turning down a big contract offer. I don’t want my quarterback on this team to go out there and say, ‘This is a prove-it year for me.'”

Right before halftime, quarterback C.J. Stroud connected with receiver Nico Collins for a 12-yard touchdown to get Houston within three.
