The former Texans wide receiver shared praise for his old franchise.
C.J. Stroud's talent and potential were evident during his time at Ohio State, which led to the Houston Texans selecting him as the No. 2 pick in the 2023 NFL Draft. It was even evident for former Texans third-round pick and wide receiver Jacoby Jones, who played over a decade in the NFL.
The Texans went out in the offseason and added Stefon Diggs, Joe Mixon and Danielle Hunter -- three seasons players who can play be mentors and add win-now value to the franchise. Because of this, expectations and strong predictions are being placed on the team. “When you have receivers where you can’t double-cover anybody, just like we had when I was with the Texans … that’s the dynamic of the game,” Jones said. “No matter where that ball goes, something is going to happen.”
“You had Andre on one side, Kevin Walter on the other or in the slot. I’d get in the slot sometimes, and we had Owen Daniels,” Jones said. “Plus, we had Arian Foster out backfield. That’s when we hit the playoffs."
