The Houston Texans will officially be without quarterback C.J. Stroud in Week 15.
The team announced that Stroud didn’t travel with the team to Tennessee and has been downgraded to out with a concussion. Offensive tackle George Fant also didn’t travel and was also downgraded to out.

Both are huge blows for the Texans but weren’t necessarily surprises. Stroud didn’t practice all week while in the concussion protocol and was listed as doubtful for the game.
Davis Mills replaced Stroud in Week 14, but the team will reportedly start veteran Case Keenum against the Tennessee Titans. Wideout Nico Collins and other key contributors will also miss the match.
