C.J. Stroud and the Houston Texans improved to 2-0 in the 2024 NFL season with a 19-13 victory over the Chicago Bears on Sunday Night Football. Stroud had a solid outing, completing 23 of 36 passes for 260 yards and one touchdown. In contrast, Bears quarterback Caleb Williams, the 2024 No. 1 draft pick, struggled, managing only 174 passing yards with no touchdowns and two interceptions.
During the game, NBC had Stroud mic’d up, and the NFL later released the full footage, which included a viral moment that garnered over 150,000 views on X. In the clip, Stroud was seen advising Bears All-Pro cornerback Jaylon Johnson, playfully commenting, “Stop telling your secrets on Richard Sherman’s podcast, dude. The palms look. You ain’t slick, brother. You ain’t getting me.” This exchange highlighted Stroud’s confidence and his ability to engage with opposing players on the field.
