The Houston Texans, led by quarterback C.J. Stroud, face the New Orleans Saints, led by Derek Carr on Sunday, August 27, 2023 (8/27/23) at Caesars Superdome in New Orleans, Louisiana.
HOUSTON — Rookie C.J. Stroud will start Houston’s final preseason game Sunday night at New Orleans.
Despite this, it seems clear that the former Ohio State standout will replace Davis Mills this season. Stroud has started both of Houston’s first two preseason games and has worked almost exclusively with the first team throughout training camp. Stroud said after Saturday’s game that the most important thing he’s focusing on is being consistent.
The Texans drafted Stroud after Mills struggled as the team’s starter for the past two years after Deshaun Watson sat out following a trade request before being shipped to Cleveland before last season.Stroud was a two-year starter for Ohio State, where he threw for 8,123 yards with 85 touchdowns and just 12 interceptions as the Buckeyes went 21-4. His 85 touchdowns over two seasons broke a Big Ten record held by Drew Brees.
