Down by four with less than a minute to go Sunday, rookie quarterback C.J. Stroud had complete confidence that he could rally the Houston Texans to a victory.
Quarterback C.J. Stroud of the Houston Texans throws a pass in the first half of a game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at NRG Stadium on November 5, 2023 in Houston, Texas. HOUSTON — Stroud, a Rancho Cucamonga graduate, threw for five touchdowns and a rookie-record 470 yards to lift the Texans to a 39-37 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in a wild back-and-forth game.
Stroud kneeled instead of attempting the 2-point conversion with kicker Kaʻimi Fairbairn out with a quadriceps injury. The Buccaneers fumbled on the final play to give Houston the victory. “It was a gutsy performance from him,” Ryans said. “It wasn’t all clean but he gutted it out. He was tough in the pocket. Made some plays, made some big-time throws for us.”
Stroud led the Texans to touchdowns on their first three possessions of the second half to put them on top 30-23. He’s the first non-kicker or punter to make a field goal since Wes Welker did it on Oct. 10, 2004, for the Dolphins against New England.
