Houston Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans announced that quarterback C.J. Stroud will participate in the upcoming preseason game against the Las Vegas Raiders. This decision comes as the coaching staff plans to give key offensive players more playing time compared to their first preseason outing, where starters were held out.

Stroud will benefit from a fully healthy offensive line, which includes new starters at important positions. Braden Smith is slated to start at right tackle, Wyatt Teller will take on the left guard role, and Keylan Rutledge is set to assume the center position. Ryans noted that the health of the offensive line is a positive development as the team progresses through training camp.

Further details regarding how long Stroud will play or any potential roster changes have not been disclosed by the coaching staff. The Texans are gearing up for their matchup against the Raiders on Thursday night.
