Summary
- C.J. Stroud learned of Chris Jones' 'Stone Cold' nickname during media availability.

Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud recently learned of Kansas City Chiefs defensive tackle Chris Jones' well-known nickname, "Stone Cold Jones," during a media availability session. Stroud expressed his unfamiliarity with the moniker, though he acknowledged Jones' elite status as a player.
While much attention is on the matchup between Patrick Mahomes and the Texans' defense, Pro Football Hall of Famer Kurt Warner posits that the game's outcome may hinge on C.J. Stroud and the Texans' offensive performance. Warner noted Stroud's strong play in recent games.
The Texans are currently 7-5 for the season after securing a 20-16 victory against the Indianapolis Colts last Sunday. Stroud will aim to replicate his 276-yard passing performance against the Chiefs in Week 14.
