C.J. Stroud has his opportunities to air it out during organized team activities Wednesday.
According to video shot by ESPN’s D.J. Bien-Aime, the No. 2 overall pick threw deep routes during Houston Texans OTAs at Houston Methodist Training Center.
Stroud was able to connect with third-year wideout Nico Collins on the first throw in the video. Third-round rookie Tank Dell was the intended target on the second throw, but was unable to make the completion.
Stroud told reporters May 23 that his goal throughout the voluntary offseason program is to maintain continuous growth.
“I feel like I’ve done a decent job so far, but I’ve got to keep growing every day,” said Stroud. “It’s not going to happen overnight. I’m going to have growing pains and things like that.”
