Stroud, Jalen Pitre Still in Concussion ProtocolThe biggest update for the Texans to take note of comes within the status of their starting quarterback, C.J. Stroud, who was a full participant in practice for the first time since suffering his concussion in Week 9, and brings some added optimism for his availability against the Colts.Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans stated after practice that both Stroud and Jalen Pitre, who was a limited participant himself, were both still in the concussion protocol, but still awaiting their first contact practice of the week. There’s ample time for both to return before the weekend.Nov 20, 2025; Houston, Texas, USA; Houston Texans quarterback C.J.
