Fantasy Focus Football on C.J. Stroud

Stroud's career-best fantasy season offers top-8 QB appeal amid elite efficiency.

CJ Stroud is quietly putting together a career-best season in fantasy football on a points-per-game basis, with elite completion percentage, a league-leading one interception on the entire season, low off-target rate, and top-tier QBR. The Texans' backfield is a disaster (3.6 yards per attempt, fourth-lowest in NFL; 1.43 yards after contact, second-lowest), forcing Stroud to sling the ball at a 65% pass rate (ninth in NFL). Tank Dell is back from injury and Marvin Harrison Jr. was added, expanding the wide receiver core. With Jalen Hurts injured and multiple teams on bye, Stroud offers top-eight positional appeal and is a streaming option this week.
