The Houston Texans are back in the playoff race, and the franchise is set to face the Buffalo Bills next. The team was without star player C.J. Stroud in their most recent fixture against the Tennessee Titans.
Despite the player, the team managed to win 16-13 against the Titans to level their win and loss record as they stand 3rd in the AFC South. The team, which won its fifth straight game, would want to extend its winning streak, and fans are curious if the quarterback will be available in the upcoming fixture.
Will C.J. Stroud play in Texans vs Bills Thursday Night Football? Latest injury update
C.J. Stroud will not play at the Thursday Night Football game against the Bills on November 20.
It will be his third game that he will miss. The third-year quarterback returned to the practice field on Tuesday, November 18. It was the first time he had returned to the practice since he suffered a concussion in a November 2 loss to the Denver Broncos. Despite this, he was not cleared by the doctors to be available for the upcoming game.
However, since he has returned to the practice, this is a positive sign for his fitness and the team. There is hope that he might be available in Week 13 football when the team plays the Indianapolis Colts, since he has returned to practice.
