HOUSTON—Coming to you from the surface of the sun and the home of a really good-looking football team. Let’s dive in on the Texans.
• The first question is going to be, of course, how C.J. Stroud looks, and it may be boring to say but he’s been steadier and more consistent this offseason, with a seriousness that underlies the big year he has in front of him. One thing that helps is that he’s been fully healthy throughout, which allowed him to take every physical rep in the spring and build some momentum headed into camp. The partnership between him and OC Nick Caley has grown, too, enabling Stroud to have more command of the offense, including taking on more of a leadership role with his teammates. The playoffs obviously didn’t go well; Stroud had seven turnovers against the Steelers and Patriots. But since then, he has responded the way the Texans would’ve wanted.
