Overview
- The Texans released a 71-second skit showing owner Cal McNair keeping his hand raised throughout the facility until C.J. Stroud returned to complete the high-five.
- The video resolves a postgame moment from the win over the Chiefs in which Stroud walked past McNair, a clip that drew online speculation about tension.
- Players Xavier Hutchinson and Christian Kirk made cameos as would-be high-fivers who were told the gesture was reserved for Stroud.
- Coverage noted broad praise for McNair’s sense of humor and the team’s social-media creativity.
- Houston has won five straight to reach 8-5, trails Jacksonville by one game, with Stroud completing 63.4% of his passes and the defense allowing the fewest points through 14 weeks; next up is Arizona at home on Sunday.
