Stroud is coming off a historic rookie season in which he threw for 4,108 yards and 23 touchdowns while only throwing five interceptions. His 273.
Can Stroud take the jump from ROY to MVP in Year 2? Alongside Josh Allen, Stroud is currently tied for the second-lowest odds to win the award as of July 7. The two trail only Mahomes . The Texans have surrounded their franchise QB with a few star weapons, as they acquired both Stefon Diggs and Joe Mixon via trade this offseason.
