Safety Calen Bullock, tight end Cade Stover and rookies Jaylen Reed and Jaylin Noel have been among the early highlights for the Texans.

For the first time since CJ Stroud took the keys, his hold on that QB1 spot doesn’t feel 100% untouchable. The post Troubling CJ Stroud Update From Training Camp Amid Texans Offense’s Struggles appeared first on EssentiallySports.

Here's everything Houston Texans defensive back C.J. Gardner-Johnson said following Day 7 of training camp practice, including his thoughts on the roster as a whole going to the postseason and more.
