Texans’ QB C.J. Stroud, who missed Sunday’s win over the Tennessee Titans and remains in the concussion protocol.

Schefter's post went on to say Stroud is likely to miss a second-straight game this coming Sunday against the Cleveland Browns. It's a tough break for fantasy owners who have rode Stroud to the playoffs this season. While it was Mills who backed up Stroud most of the season, Keenum got the start last week and one would think he gets the call again in Week 16 if Stroud is out. It could be a tough go against the good Browns defense.

C.J. Stroud missed Sunday’s overtime win over the Titans on Sunday after being concussed in Houston’s Week 14 loss to the Jets and head coach DeMeco Ryans told reporters on Monday that Stroud remains in the concussion protocol. Wednesday’s practice will be the next milestone in his path back to the lineup.

Despite Davis Mills serving as the No. 2 quarterback all season, Case Keenum got the start against Tennessee. He was 23-of-36 for 229 yards, a touchdown, and an interception in the win.

This doesn't sound like a great start to the week as the Texans hope to get their star QB back on the field. If Stroud can't go, the story said Ryans did not say whether Keenum will start against the Browns on Christmas Eve if Stroud is not cleared to return.

Collins will be missing Week 15, which further puts a damper on what has been an exciting offense. Dalton Schultz should be considered a must-start tight end if he returns to action with a thinning wide receiver room.

This increases the chances that Davis Mills will be starting for the Texans in Week 15, which limits the ceiling of all of the team's healthy position players. Mills himself should be kept out of fantasy lineups.

As Rapoport said, there's a real chance in a must-win game for the Texans, they may have to turn to Mills to start at QB. Stroud took a rough hit where the back of his head hit the turf. The good news is, it would be a favorable matchup against a Titans defense that can be vulnerable to the pass should Mills have to play, and you need his services. The trend this year has been players missing a week of action after entering protocol, but like Rapoport added, every player recovers differently. Obviously Stroud's status will need to be monitored this week. The Texans and Titans do play an early game on Sunday so Stroud owners will have some time to adjust, but there are also four games taking place before Sunday, so start making backup plans now.

The Texans added QB C.J. Stroud to the injury report with a right shoulder issue and he is listed as questionable for Sunday's game vs. the Colts.

This is of no impact for 1QB or Superflex leagues as it stands. Stroud made plays to the best of his ability in Week 1 and still finished the game with a 5.5 YPA.

Texans rookie head coach DeMeco Ryans announced that rookie C.J. Stroud will be the team's starting QB to open up the 2023 season following Houston's preseason finale against the New Orleans Saints on Sunday.

Not a big surprise, but Stroud struggled a little early on before making improvement, especially in the preseason games. He threw is first TD in the team's third preseason game. The story said Mills may have been the safer pick, but the rest of the Texans young offense now has a chance to grow with a QB who was the number-two overall pick in the NFL Draft.

Texans coach DeMeco Ryans said C.J. Stroud will start again vs. the Dolphins —another step toward the No. 2 overall pick being Houston's QB1.

At this point, it would be quite a surprise if Stroud did not begin Week 1 as the Texans starter. Stroud completed two-of-four passes for 13 yards and an interception in preseason Week 1.

Pep Hamilton on using Jeff Driskel in two-quarterback system, said it was initially an 'experiment,' now it's a part of the offense.

The Texans feel it helps to "create conflict," and disrupt the defense. "We hope it will limit the potential looks we will see," according to the rest of the tweet. Driskel saw less snaps last week than he did two weeks ago and was mostly used as a runner, but didn't exactly produce much from a fantasy angle. The Texans are expected to use their number-one overall pick on either Bryce Young or C.J. Stroud this April, which we hope puts an end to the two QB system in 2023.

Texans are expected to maintain two-quarterback system of Davis Mills and Jeff Driskel going forward.

The Texans are going to stick with this after having success against the Cowboys last week. Obviously in typical leagues neither of these two are options, and they are probably barely options in the deepest of leagues.
