Fantasy Impact

Stroud was benched at halftime. He'll head to Pittsburgh in the Wild Card round.

Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans said the Texans will play their starters in Week 18’s game against the Colts.

Fantasy Impact

Houston can still technically win the AFC South with a win over the Colts and a Jaguars upset against the Titans. The Texans starters are all expected to play.

C.J. Stroud completed 16 of 28 passes for 244 yards, two touchdowns, and two picks in the Texans' 20-16 win over the Chargers. He ran four times for no gain.

Fantasy Impact

Stroud lit up the Chargers early to get the Texans out to a lead, but cooled off from there. Those two long touchdowns were 118 of his 244 yards, and those bombs weren't his only completions of the first quarter. All in all, he still got things done and should be able to put up nice numbers against the Colts next week.

C.J. Stroud completed 23-of-35 passing attempts for 187 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-21 win over the Las Vegas Raiders.

Fantasy Impact

Stroud had an up-and-down game on Sunday. He didn't make many mistakes against the Raiders and had zero turnovers on the afternoon, but he struggled to get much going, finishing with under 200 total yards and just one touchdown against one of the league's worst defenses. He also has a tougher matchup coming up against the Chargers next week, and fantasy managers should avoid starting him if at all possible.

C.J. Stroud completed 22-of-29 passes for 260 yards and three touchdowns in the Texans' 40-20 win over Arizona. He also ran six times for 10 yards.

Fantasy Impact

Stroud hasn't been lighting up the scoreboard in recent weeks, but he had a great game in this spot. Even if he's been lackluster for fantasy, he's playing well and guiding the Texans to wins, which is all they are asking for right now. He's an interesting option against the Raiders' suspect defense next week.
