CJ Stroud finally snaps historic non-interception streak vs. New Orleans
CJ Stroud has now lived the harsh reality: All good things must come to an end.
The Ohio State quarterback threw 191 straight passing attempts without throwing an interception to begin his rookie career, an NFL record. He finally snapped that streak Sunday against New Orleans.
All things considered, it could have been worse for Stroud and the Texans. Stroud had a bad throw picked off, but the Texans forced a fumble and retained possession.
