Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud has not been doing the thing he's best known for – throwing the football – lately.

According to multiple reports Tuesday, Stroud is still not throwing at the penultimate day of the Texans' offseason organized team activities (OTAs) while he deals with a sore shoulder.

Said Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans: "There's no concerns with C.J. It's just general soreness. We're taking extra precaution with him, but he'll be good to go. No concerns on my end there."

Shoulder issues are not new for Stroud.

In 2021, during his redshirt freshman year at Ohio State, the former Buckeye missed his team's Week 4 meeting with Akron while dealing with a shoulder injury.

"[T]here was still kind of this feeling that he had that he really couldn't shake, and so maybe rest is something that would go a long way for him," Ohio State head coach Ryan Day said at the time.

Stroud returned to action one week later and didn't miss another game for the remainder of his collegiate career.

However, the 2023 No. 2 overall pick had another issue with his shoulder a couple of years later, early in his rookie season.

In the lead-up to a Week 2 matchup with the Indianapolis Colts in 2023, Stroud was listed on the injury report as questionable to play with a right shoulder injury.

He went on to make the start, completing 30 of 47 pass attempts for 384 yards and two touchdowns in a 20-31 loss.

Stroud has only ever missed two games so far in his two-year pro career, both because of a concussion he suffered his rookie year in a Week 14 clash with the New York Jets. He played (and started) in every game during his sophomore campaign last year.

Whether his current shoulder soreness will become a bigger problem still remains to be seen. Both of his previous run-ins with shoulder issues came at early points in those seasons, so perhaps the latest case is once again a matter of getting some of the rust off.
