DeMeco was asked about CJ
Posting the entire story by Jonathan Alexander, because I want everyone to have up to date info.
Houston Texans coach DeMeco Ryans said quarterback C.J. Stroud is dealing with “general soreness” in his throwing shoulder, but maintained that he’s not concerned moving forward.
“Whenever he’s ready to go, he’ll be ready,” Ryans said.
Stroud has not thrown in any of the Texans six practices during offseason workouts. He’s only handed the ball off to running backs. Ryans said the team is “taking extra precautions with it. He’ll be good to go.”
Davis Mills has been taking first-team snaps and will likely continue to do so until Stroud returns.
It’s unclear when he sustained the injury but he appeared to suffer a shoulder injury late last season in the Texans’ Christmas game against the Ravens. Stroud did not miss any time, however.
Christian Kirk, a receiver the Texans acquired from the Jacksonville Jaguars in March, said Stroud is still involved on the practice field even if he’s not throwing.
“You still see him listening to the calls, going through certain things,” Kirk said. “If he sees a guy make a mistake or feels like they could do it better, he’s going up to them and coaching. That’s big for a quarterback going into his third season. That’s stuff that you see from guys who have been in the league even longer. That’s really cool to see. I know that when it’s time for us to get rolling, he’s going to hop in there and just keep elevating us as an offense.”
