After being traded from the Cincinnati Bengals to the Houston Texans, running back Joe Mixon was named AFC Offensive Player of the Week following an impressive debut game, with 159 rushing yards and one touchdown. Following his move, Mixon signed a three-year deal worth $25.5 million with his new team. Despite a successful past season with the Bengals, the Ohio-based team had traded him to the Texans to free up their salary cap.

C.J. Stroud outside of the turnovers vs Pittsburgh was arguably some of his best tape all season. Obviously the turnovers still cannot happen and he knows that but the way he threw the football in that game is something they can grow off. Among QBs in WC round excluding turnovers: 0.413 EPA/Play (1st) 0.413 ADJ. EPA/Play (1st) 48.5% Success Rate (6th) 1.0 CPOE (4th) Stroud late in the season really threw the ball well when kept clean until the divisional round.

Texans HC Demeco Ryans on OC Nick Caley heading into his 2nd season via @AaronWilson_NFL: “His flexibility and being able to go in any manner we needed to go to help us win games he was able to do that. I think we did a better job from a protection standpoint than the previous years just when it came to not getting the quarterback hit as much, I thought we did a better job there. Still looking to enhance and improve that, but I thought Nick did a really good job of setting their protections”
