Ravens Head Coach John Harbaugh on Texans Quarterback C.J. Stroud: "Just continues to grow. He's just a super talented guy. I remember watching him at Ohio State – he'd make all those outside-breaking routes on the dime on the sideline, and [he] just has a strong arm. He's very accurate, [has a] quick release [and] makes a lot of tight windows throws to his receivers – ironically to a Michigan guy, Nico Collins. [He has] a great back [in Joe Mixon], who is a home run hitter, but he's surrounded with some good weapons, and he gets the ball out quick. He handles pressure well, he can move, he's athletic, [he] scrambles and makes plays. All those things are things that he does."
Ravens Safety Kyle Hamilton on Stroud: "I think there is a little bit [we can take away from] playing against [C.J. Stroud]. Obviously, he was a rookie last year, [and] it's going to be different going against him this year. He's seen a whole, full season. We played him [in his] first game of his career, and then in the playoffs last year. Unfortunately, they've had some injuries and stuff like that, so it's going to be a little different team. [I'm] praying for those guys that they have over there. I know they had a few receivers [go down]. Obviously, Tank [Dell] just got hurt – hate to see that in this league, no matter who [we're] playing. It's a part of the game, but it's tough to watch, and [I'm] praying for him and all those guys over there. But yes, C.J. is a great quarterback, and it's not going to be an easy task – getting him off his game and hopefully making him have a bad game. So, it's going to start with the run game, knocking out the run game, and then from then on, just getting after the quarterback."
Harbaugh on the Texans Pass Rush: "They have the two top guys [in Will Anderson Jr. and Danielle Hunter], of course, but then I look at the roster, and it's not just them. They have a whole bunch; they have six guys – six guys that can get to the quarterback off the edge that we're going to have to contend with."
