The Houston Texans, who had the second pick, selected Stroud to be their quarterback of the future. It was a bit of a surprise move, given that there were some rumors about other players potentially being selected at that spot. However, Stroud had an impressive college career and was seen as a promising prospect by many.

Stroud played his college ball at Ohio State, where he had two standout seasons as the starting quarterback. He completed over 69% of his passes, throwing for over 8,000 yards and 80 touchdowns in those two seasons. He was also a finalist for the Heisman Trophy in both seasons, finishing fourth in 2021 and third in 2022.

While Stroud's low score on the S2 Cognitive Test may have raised some concerns among scouts, it didn't seem to dissuade the Texans from selecting him. They clearly believe in his ability to lead their team, and Stroud will have the opportunity to prove himself on the field in the coming seasons.

It will be interesting to see how Stroud adapts to the NFL game and develops as a quarterback. He has shown plenty of promise so far, and if he can continue to progress and refine his skills, he could become one of the league's top quarterbacks in the years to come. Texans fans will be eagerly watching his progress and hoping that he can help lead their team to success.
