Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud remains in concussion protocol.
Texans coach DeMeco Ryans said Stroud, who has missed the last three games since sustaining a concussion in Houston’s Nov. 2 loss to Denver, will start Sunday’s game at Indianapolis (8-3) if he clears the protocol this week.
In Stroud’s absence, Davis Mills has led the Texans (6-5) to three wins in as many starts to bring the team back into playoff contention after an 0-3 start.
Houston is one game behind the Los Angeles Chargers, Jacksonville Jaguars and Buffalo Bills, the teams who currently hold the AFC wild-card spots with 7-4 records.
Stroud has 1,702 passing yards, 11 touchdowns and five interceptions in eight starts this season. Mills has completed 58.7% of his passes for 879 yards, five touchdowns and one interception in five games (three starts) this season.
Stroud practiced just once last week on Thursday in a limited capacity. His status on Wednesday’s injury report could be indicative of his potential status for this week’s game.
