New Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud said in a pre-draft interview with Uninterrupted’s The Shop that he felt “disrespected” when Ohio State brought in five-star quarterback Quinn Ewers in the fall of 2021.
Ewers, who was ranked as the No. 1 player in the high school class of 2022, reclassified up one year to join the Buckeyes early in fall camp ahead of the ’21 season. That move didn’t sit well with Stroud, who already had sat behind Justin Fields in the 2020 season.
“I kind of felt disrespected. I didn’t like that,” Stroud admitted.
