Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud is impressed with Jayden Daniels going as far as the NFC Championship Game in his rookie season with the Washington Commanders.

"I'm so proud of him. In my opinion, he's had the best rookie year of all-time," Stroud said Monday.

Stroud continued: "We talk a lot, and I'm just very, very, very, very, very happy for him, and very proud of him. I don't root for many other teams, but I'm rooting for my boy. I'm rooting for the Commanders."

Stroud and the Texans were eliminated from the Divisional round Saturday by the defending champion Kansas City Chiefs.
