The Burning Question on Everyone's Lips (Well, Maybe Just Houston's): What Number Will CJ Stroud Wear?
Let's face it, folks, the Texans haven't exactly set the world on fire lately. But hey, that's why there's hope for the future, right? Especially with a shiny new quarterback like CJ Stroud coming in at number two overall. Now, there's been a lot of buzz around the rookie sensation, but one question has remained curiously unanswered: what number will he wear?
The Jersey Detective is on the Case!
We at Totally Serious Sports News (TSSN, because let's be honest, most sports news isn't exactly groundbreaking) couldn't just sit idly by. We needed answers. So, we donned our metaphorical fedoras, grabbed our magnifying glasses made of pure sports fanaticism, and hit the digital pavement.
Did He Bring His College Threads?
Now, Stroud sported the number 7 at Ohio State. A classic number for a quarterback, imbued with the ghosts of legends past. But would the Texans have any current players rocking that number? Our investigation led us to... kicker Kaʻimi Fairbairn. Intriguing. A battle for jersey supremacy, perhaps?
Plot Twist: The Power of Negotiation
Fear not, dear reader! It seems a deal was struck, a jersey-based détente. Kaʻimi, in a heartwarming display of team spirit (or maybe he just got a REALLY good deal on new cleats), relinquished the number. CJ Stroud will indeed be sporting the number 7 for the Houston Texans!
So, What Does it All Mean?
Does this guarantee a Hall of Fame career? Not necessarily. But hey, it's a good sign, right? It shows the Texans are putting their faith in Stroud, and that number 7 carries a certain weight of expectation.
But wait, there's more! Here at TSSN, we like to think outside the box. Maybe Stroud wearing number 7 is a sign... a sign of... 7 Super Bowl wins? That's right, folks, we're calling it now. The prophecy begins!
(Disclaimer: This prophecy is for entertainment purposes only. We are not liable for any future disappointment if, you know, the Texans only win like, 3 Super Bowls. But hey, 3 is still pretty good, right?)
Stay tuned, folks! TSSN will continue to bring you the hard-hitting journalism you crave. Because let's face it, who needs real news when you have the thrilling world of jersey number speculation?
