The Houston Texans will be without their starting quarterback on Sunday.
On Wednesday, Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans announced Stroud will miss Sunday’s game against the Jacksonville Jaguars after suffering a concussion in a Week 9 loss against the Denver Broncos.
Stroud was trying to get a first down with his legs, but slid short before taking a hit to the chest from Broncos cornerback Kris Abrams-Draine. The hit caused Stroud’s head to hit the ground.
The news comes as the Texans sit 3-5 on the season and are up against time to get their season turned around and make a playoff push.
Stroud, who’s in his third season in the NFL, has thrown for 1,702 yards, 11 touchdowns and five interceptions this year.
