The Houston Texans have ruled out quarterback C.J. Stroud (concussion protocol) for Sunday’s game at the Tennessee Titans.
Stroud and offensive tackle George Fant (hip/illness) did not travel to Nashville after not practicing this week, the team announced Saturday. Stroud had been listed as doubtful and Fant was questionable.
Houston also added cornerback Steven Nelson (wrist) to the injury report on Saturday and he is questionable to play.
Stroud did not return to the Week 14 game after hitting his head on the turf in the late stages of a 30-6 loss to the New York Jets last Sunday in East Rutherford, N.J. He’s second in the NFL in passing yards (3,631) and owns the fifth-best passer rating (98.7).
Davis Mills, who played the final 6:30 against the Jets, has plenty of experience with the Texans, starting 26 games over the previous two seasons — although Houston is just 5-20-1 in those games.
Mills and third-string quarterback Case Keenum divided reps with the first-team offense during the week for the Texans (7-6), who are fighting to remain in playoff contention against the Titans (5-8).
