Last season might have been the fluke year for Dalton Schultz in a Houston Texans<\/a>‘ uniform.<\/p>\n

It certainly looks like the 2024 campaign was the outlier for the Pro Bowl quarterback C.J. Stroud. And together? Fans and the media could owe the duo an apology.<\/p>\n

Stroud, who excelled during red zone drills at the Methodist Training Center in front of fans, once again got the tight ends involved thanks to the play design of new offensive coordinator Nick Caley. After maneuvering away from a sack, he floated a dime toward the back pylon to Schultz for an impressive catch and touchdown reception.<\/p>\n

Here’s a look at the must-see play below.<\/p>\n

Stroud and Schultz are both looking to “rebound” after setbacks from their steller 2023 campaigns. Stroud, who won NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year after throwing for 4,000 yards, only tossed 20 touchdown passes while also throwing a career-high 12 interceptions. Even though his on-field play wasn’t perfect, he was still able to guide the Texans<\/a> to a second division title and playoff victory in the wild-card round.<\/p>\n

Schultz, who signed a three-year extension worth $36 million in the offseason after his career-high year as Stroud’s security blanket, only managed to total two touchdown receptions off 53 catches for 523 yards. His role could expand now with the hiring of Caley, a longtime tight ends coach with the Patriots<\/a> and Rams<\/a>, as the new offensive coordinator.<\/p>\n

The Texans return to practice on Tuesday. They’ll be in Houston through the week before leaving for The Greenbriar in West Virginia next week ahead of their preseason matchup against the Minnesota Vikings<\/a>.<\/p>\n
