The Houston Texans are far from where they hoped to be at the midpoint of the season. And things might get worse before they get better with the availability of quarterback C.J.

The Houston Texans have an update on C.J. Stroud following a day after falling short in an 18-15 loss against the Denver Broncos.

The Houston Texans could make a big trade to bolster their group around quarterback C.J. Stroud before the deadline.

It's also worth noting that the Broncos’ All-Pro linebacker Dre Greenlaw will return to the fold after missing one game through suspension, so it will be no mean feat for Stroud and Co. to gain positive traction irrespective of Surtain being sidelined.

Bo Nix and the Denver Broncos will face C.J. Stroud and the Houston Texans in Week 9 of the NFL season on Sunday.

The Denver Broncos captains for the game were Bo Nix, Talanoa Hufanga, and Alex Singleton. They would win the opening coin toss and defer possession to the second half to bring C.J. Stroud and the Houston Texans offense out to start the game.
