The Houston Texans' third-year quarterback downplayed his limited participation during drills last week at voluntary OTAs due to general soreness in his shoulder. Stroud threw passes at practice for the first time with media in attendance after not throwing through the first two weeks of OTAs.

There were questions about whether Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud was injured after he didn't do much throwing during voluntary OTAs, but any worries can be alleviated.

Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud did not throw the ball during OTAs open to the media this spring, but his workload was different on Tuesday. Stroud was throwing without any limitations at the team's first minicamp practice.
