Week 5 Overview

It's getting hard to trust Stroud, even in Superflex formats. Over his last 15 starts, Stroud has produced 15 total TDs, 12 INTs, and the Texans sport a 6-9 record. This week's matchup against Tennessee doesn't appear to be the cure to those ills. The Titans have surrendered the seventh-fewest fantasy points to QBs so far. In two starts against Tennessee last season, Stroud finished as the QB11 and QB31. He's a middling QB2 at best this week and moving forward.

Texans QB C.J. Stroud has not been throwing at practice this week because of a shoulder problem. Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 in Houston reports that it's a "minor shoulder muscle issue" that "isn't regarded as a long-term issue."

The Jaguars are trading WR Christian Kirk to the Texans for a seventh-round pick in 2026, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. The compensation's obviously low because the Jags had already made it known they planned to release Kirk. By giving up a late pick in next year's draft, Houston gets the final year of Kirk's existing contract (at $16.5 million) instead of having to compete for him on the open market.
