HOUSTON, Texas (KTRK) — Houston Texans quarterback CJ Stroud won’t be on the field when his team faces the Jacksonville Jaguars in an AFC South clash at NRG Stadium.
Stroud was ruled out Wednesday with a concussion after a hard hit and slamming his head on the ground during the Texans’ loss to the Denver Broncos last week.
Davis Mills is the next man up to lead the offense in Stroud’s place.
Stroud is not the only starter who’s out.
The Texans will be without safety Jalen Pitre, right tackle Tytus Howard, kicker Ka’imi Fairbairn and right guard Ed Ingramon.
It’s all just one week after star wide receiver Nico Collins returned from a concussion.
In Week 10 now, the Texans host the Jaguars during the Salute to Service game in honor of those who served our country.
The Texans will be dressed in their Deep Steel blue uniforms.
The first 10,000 fans will receive military-inspired beanies. Forty thousand fans will receive handheld American flags that will be part of a special in-game moment.
But first, join the “Countdown to Kickoff” team at 11 a.m. Sunday to preview the game and all things Texans.
Kickoff is at noon.
