C.J. Stroud set the league on fire en route to winning NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year, as the No. 2 overall pick led his Houston Texans to an AFC South crown and a playoff victory at just 22 years old.

His strong arm opened up this offense in a new way, and a new video just surfaced from his offseason work that reminded everyone just how special his arm talent is.

In the video, Stroud can be seen in OTAs launching an absolute strike up the left sideline that dropped perfectly into John Metchie III’s hands over his shoulder, but he was unable to secure the catch (via NFL Rookie Watch).

Regardless of the drop, this is the type of highlight throw that makes Stroud so special, and it’s the type of throw that will have fans salivating at the idea of adding wide receiver Stefon Diggs to this offense following his offseason trade from the Buffalo Bills.

Stroud has one of the league’s best WR units to work with this season, adding Diggs to a unit that already included Tank Dell, Noah Brown, and the newly extended Nico Collins, as well as Metchie, who will hopefully be able to take a step forward this season and put this drop behind him.

Stroud put up 23 touchdowns and just five interceptions last season and will look to improve upon those numbers as a sophomore in the loaded AFC.
