Ah, we loved a good mic’d-up moment in the NFL, and Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud had two of them last week.
The first was his classy message to Caleb Williams after the win over the Chicago Bears. The second? It was when he went up to Bears cornerback Jaylon Johnson and had this to say: “Stop telling your secrets on Richard Sherman’s podcast, dude.”
“You ain’t slick, brother,” he added. “You ain’t getting me!”
What was he referring to? Apparently, Johnson spoke on Sherman’s podcast about how he made a pick on a Vikings throw from Josh Dobbs last season.
Clearly, that gave Stroud some intel on how Johnson thinks about certain plays. Fascinating!
"Stop telling your secrets on @RSherman_25's podcast dude" 😂
