Former Ohio State wide receiver Emeka Egbuka spoke about his connection with quarterback CJ Stroud following a formal meeting with the Houston Texans.
Egbuka expressed pride in Stroud's accomplishments and mentioned their deep relationship, highlighting their successful season together in college.
The Texans, in need of additional receiving weapons, have shown interest in possibly reuniting the duo.

C.J. Stroud & Jaylin Noel will be creating explosives in Houston for a LONGGG time.
Such an impressive player even in the limited opportunities he has gotten this season.
In Year 1 of Nick Caley the Texans have had their best numbers in the Demeco ERA in multiple key statistics (pending Week 18):
- 12 Total Turnovers (14 in 2023)
- 31.8% QB Pressure Rate (36.5% in 2023)
- 31 Sacks (47 in 2023)
- 32.02 TOP (31.13 in 2024)
His offense has avoided negative plays which helps the Texans defense shine and keep them rested.
Texans C Jake Andrews is the highest graded Pass Blocking center since Week 13 via @PFF.
Andrews has allowed just 3 pressures over those 5 games with 0 sacks and a 81.2 PBLK Grade.
Andrews also has a 78.9 TPS PBLK Grade which is 3rd best among all centers.
Texans draft haul with one week left in the season:
- 26
- 39 (Via WAS)
- 58
- 66 (Via NYG)
- 107 (Via WAS)
- 126
- 165
- 239
Their Laremy Tunsil trade & draft trade from last offseason will net them 2 extra top 70 picks.
Jaylin Noel in the 4 games he has gotten 3 or more targets this season (@PFF)
19 Targets
14 Catches
207 Yards
2 TDs
89 OFF Grade
3.18 Y/RR (only 2 WRs have above 3 Y/RR this season)
122 Passer Rating when Targeted
Get him on the field!
What a quote from Jalen Pitre 🙏
In the first 3 years of the Demeco Ryans & C.J. Stroud ERA the Texans have won their most games in a 3 year period in Franchise History.
It is also their first time winning 10+ games in 3 straight seasons.
One of the craziest Texans stats of the season to me:
DT Tommy Togiai is currently T-13th in run stops for all DL this season according to NGS.
Every other player in the top 20 has played at least 539 snaps while Togiai has played just 406.
