Overview

• Stroud has skipped all throwing sessions during Organized Team Activities since May 28 due to lingering shoulder soreness.
• DeMeco Ryans has downplayed any alarm over the injury and said extra precautions are in place, but he provided no timeline for Stroud’s return to passing work.
• After earning Offensive Rookie of the Year honors in 2023, Stroud was sacked 52 times last season—second-most in the NFL—spurring Houston’s decision to revamp pass protection.
• The Texans traded Pro Bowl tackle Laremy Tunsil and guard Kenyon Green, released Shaq Mason and added Cam Robinson, Trent Brown, Laken Tomlinson and Ed Ingram to bolster the offensive line.
• With Stroud’s throwing put on hold, Davis Mills and Kedon Slovis have led first-team passing drills as the Texans prepare for their mandatory minicamp beginning June 10.
