Foxborough, Massachusetts (PSF) - C.J. Stroud played his first pre season game against the Patriots on August 10th, 2023. Stroud was the number two overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft. The former Ohio State quarterback was set to take the field against the patriots. He ended up playing the teams first two drives. He ended up going two for four for 13 yards. But, his second passing attempt of the game led to a interception. He also had two rushes for six yards. At the end of the day C.J. Stroud did not play as well as he would have hoped.

Just like that C.J. Stroud got his first NFL experience. His interception was a bad throw that went straight to the defender and he didn’t even give his receiver a chance. It is way to early to write C.J. Stroud off. It was his first ever game against a different team and not only that he only got to play two drives. Stroud could be a very talented quarterback in the NFL he just can’t make the stupid mistakes he made in that pre-season game. At the end of the day C.J. Stroud did not play as well as he would have hoped.
