Who Should I Start? C.J. Stroud or Spencer Rattler

Wednesday, November 26, 2:39 PM

Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud (concussion) is practicing on Wednesday and continues to take steps toward being cleared from concussion protocol this week, per Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2. Stroud has missed three consecutive games since taking a shot to the head during Houston's Week 9 loss to the Denver Broncos. The third-year quarterback remained in concussion protocol to begin the week, but the Texans are hopeful that he will return in Week 13 for a big divisional matchup against the Indianapolis Colts. Stroud was playing well before going down, throwing for 318 yards in Week 8 against the 49ers, his first 300-yard game since Week 5 of last season. He would be back in play as a potential streamer in Week 13 if he is able to play.

New Orleans Saints quarterback Spencer Rattler has been benched during Sunday's Week 8 matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Rattler threw three interceptions last week and wasn't having much more success this weekend. He completed 15-of-21 passing attempts for 136 yards with an interception before being pulled in the second half of this game. Tyler Shough has taken over under center for at least the rest of this game. Given the Saints record, it wouldn't be shocking if Shough got a chance at the starting gig in the second half of the season.
