David Mills took his spot in the offense as the Texans looked to shorten the Jets’ 6-24 lead at MetLife Stadium.
The Texans made an official statement on the health of the quarterback confirming he was being evaluated for a concussion and his official status in the dying minutes of the game was ‘questionable’.
Stroud had 10 of 23 completions for 91 yards with a 54.8 quarterback raiting.
