According to ESPN's DJ Bien-Aime, C. J. Stroud might be healthy and ready for the Texans' Week 13 game against the Indianapolis Colts on Nov. 30. The Indy-Houston game will kick off at 1 p.m. ET from Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Indiana.

Although Stroud has been the Texans' QB since they took him with the No. 2 pick in the 2023 NFL draft, Mills has shown that he is more than good enough to lead the Texans' offense.

Houston (6-5) will have to make an important call on its QB1 for the Week 13 matchup against Indy.
