Stroud to play preseason after playoff struggles; first action since four-INT divisional loss.

Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans has decided C.J. Stroud will play in Thursday's preseason game against the Raiders, reversing an earlier decision to hold starters out. This will be Stroud's first game action since his divisional-round playoff meltdown against the Patriots, where he threw four interceptions and had seven turnovers across two playoff games. The source notes that Stroud needs the work, unlike the team's defensive starters.
