'How did he see that?': C.J. Stroud touchdown shocks Chad Ochocinco

Texans fans are plenty familiar with C.J. Stroud's brilliance after nearly two full seasons in Houston. One NFL luminary joined the collection of Stroud's admirers Saturday afternoon.

Houston's QB evaded pressure from the Kansas City Chiefs defensive line and tossed a touchdown pass across his body in the second quarter of Saturday's battle of AFC playoff teams. Stroud's latest career highlight caught the attention of former Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Chad Ochocinco, who co-hosted the EA Sports Madden NFL Cast on Peacock.

"Throw it away, don't do that," Ochocinco advised Stroud in real time as the Texans' QB sprinted right and threw back left toward the middle of the field.
