CJ Stroud’s historic rookie start now recognized at Pro Football Hall of Fame
Published:
CJ Stroud’s name has already made it into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
Obviously the rookie quarterback hasn’t been inducted into the Hall of Fame yet, but an accomplishment from his rookie season has landed in the Hall of Fame.
Stroud set an NFL record for the most pass attempts (186) to start a rookie season without an interception in NFL history, and the Hall of Fame now features the game ball from when he reached the historic mark. Stroud played almost 6 full games without an interception, giving up his first one in the Houston Texans’ Week 6 game against the New Orleans Saints.
