C.J. Stroud Headshot

Texans QB C.J. Stroud set a single-game rookie record with 470 passing yards in the 39-37 Week 9 win over the Bucs. Stroud completed 71% of his 42 passes, averaged 11.2 yards per attempt, and tossed five TDs vs. 0 INTs. It was as impressive of a QB performance as we've seen all season. Stroud had cooled off in his last few games heading into this one. But he's generally played excellent football this season -- and not just for a rookie. He's finished as a top-12 fantasy QB in five of his last seven outings now and will remain a QB1 option for at least the next four weeks vs. the Bengals, Cardinals, Jaguars, and Broncos. The Jets will present a tough test in Week 14.
