Texans: CJ Stroud officially withdraws

The Texans have indicated that CJ Stroud (QB) is officially out of this Sunday's game. Asked about the player's state of health, Demeco Ryans was not very talkative at a press conference this Friday.

» He is starting to feel better but he is still subject to the protocol. We hope that his condition will improve further in the coming days. »

Case Keenum (QB) will take over. To make matters worse, he will be without Nico Collins (WR) injured in the calf.

Jets: Aaron Rodgers ever closer to return

Aaron Rodgers (QB) should be the Jets' Christmas present. According to ESPN, the quarterback should receive the green light from doctors to play in the coming week.

Obviously, this does not mean that Rodgers will play on December 24 against the Commanders. With 5 wins and 8 losses before facing the Dolphins this Sunday, New York seems far from the playoffs. And rushing Rodgers' return might not be the best idea.

Last dance for Teddy Bridgewater (Lions)

On the Detroit bench behind Jared Goff, Teddy Bridgewater (QB) is experiencing his last NFL campaign. He was the one who announced it to the Detroit Free Press.

The 31-year-old insists he has no problem with his role, but he is looking towards a new life.

“When I got injured, I realized that I only play football for three hours on Sunday. Besides, I'm Theodore Bridgewater, it puts everything in perspective, and it really helped me with not thinking about being a starter anymore. I tell myself that I have things to do. And things bigger than American football. American football is just a platform at my disposal. »

Injuries

– Tyreek Hill (WR, Dolphins) did not practice all week. He is doubtful to play due to an ankle injury. According to ESPN, the Miami staff plans to let him decide his possible participation in this Sunday's game against the Jets.

– Geno Smith could return this week. The Seahawks quarterback has been dealing with a groin injury since last week but returned to practice on Tuesday.
