C.J. Stroud

Since Week 11, Stroud has still struggled as the QB27 in fantasy points per game. Since Week 11, among 35 qualifying passers, Stroud has ranked 21st in yards per attempt, 23rd in passer rating, 24th in highly accurate throw rate, and 26th in fantasy points per dropback. This continues to be a disappointing sophomore season for Stroud. He has been unable to snap out of the funk. I would love to say Stroud has a ceiling performance this week against a pedestrian Chiefs pass defense, but I think we are past the point of hoping for that for Stroud this year. Since Week 10, Kansas City has ranked 16th in passing yards per game and yards per attempt allowed while also giving up the 13th-highest CPOE and the ninth-highest success rate per dropback.
