Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud was hit by Broncos cornerback Kris Abrams-Draine late on a run in the second quarter and the quarterback was shaken up after the play.

But one thing's for sure, there was a lot of utter futility in this game.

Despite quarterback Bo Nix being a slight disappointment in his sophomore season, the Broncos defense has been more than enough to compensate.
