Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud and edge rusher Will Anderson Jr. have been awarded the Offensive and Defensive Rookie of the Year honors, respectively, sweeping the awards for the team. Stroud, the No. 2 overall pick from Ohio State, had an impressive season with over 4,100 passing yards, 26 total touchdowns, and just 5 interceptions. He secured 48 of the 50 first-place votes for the Offensive Rookie of the Year. Anderson, also a key player for the Texans, finished the year with 45 tackles, 7 sacks, and 22 quarterback hits in 15 regular-season games. He earned 16 first-place votes and a total of 151 voting points for the Defensive Rookie of the Year. This marks a significant achievement for the Texans, as it is the second consecutive year that both Rookie of the Year awards went to players from the same team, with the New York Jets' Garrett Wilson and Sauce Gardner winning the previous year.
