CHAGRIN FALLS, Ohio -- Rain fell as the Houston Texans' offense struggled during their seventh training camp practice last month.
Through the first three 11-on-11 drills, the offense was sloppy and failed to pick up a first down. There were pre-snap penalties and miscommunication between quarterback C.J. Stroud and the receivers that led to incompletions. Pass protection struggled as Stroud was sacked multiple times. One sack featured defensive end Danielle Hunter quickly zooming past right tackle Tytus Howard which ended the third team session for the offensive starters.
There was one more 11-on-11 period left, but as the group walked through the soggy grass towards the sideline, a frustrated Stroud snapped, yelling at his unit.
