C.J. Stroud says he understands why fans booed him and the Houston Texans during their Christmas Day loss to the Baltimore Ravens.
"People are entitled to their opinions and they care about the game. Their emotions matter, so I understand," Stroud said, per NBC Sports' Michael David Smith. "This is not my first time and it probably won't be my last.
"This is not something to internalize and point the finger at yourself but it is something that you can use to motivate you, to not want those moments anymore."
Stroud went 17-of-31 for 185 yards, no touchdowns and an interception as the Texans were held to two points in the holiday loss.
