The Houston Texans are having it much better of late. After opening the 2026 NFL season with four consecutive losses, Stroud and company have stitched together two wins in a row.
Their first win came in Week 5’s 26-3 demolition of the Tennessee Titans on the road. The following week, Houston took down a bigger team, defeating Trevor Lawrence and the AFC South-leading Jacksonville Jaguars in London to the tune of a 34-31 score.
Houston is still just 2-4 after six weeks, but one wouldn’t know it based solely on the performance of Stroud this season.
The former Ohio State Buckeyes star has been a solid presence under center for the Texans, as he leads the team’s high-flying attack that is averaging 355.0 total yards per game and 270.2 passing yards per contest – 10th and fourth overall in the NFL, respectively.
Stroud, Texans Gaining Steam Amid Winning Streak
Stroud’s effectiveness in distributing the ball downfield has even earned him a place in the franchise’s record books.

CJ Stroud is the 1st Texans QB in franchise history (and the only QB in the NFL now) to have over 1,700 passing yards with one or less interceptions through 6 games.

1,714 Passing Yards

So far this season, Stroud, who has yet to sign a contract extension has passed for 1,714 yards and will look to add more when the Texans host the New York Giants in a Week 7 game this coming Sunday.
