NFL fans are praising Houston Texans star quarterback C.J. Stroud for his incredibly classy postgame comment.
The Texans topped the Dolphins, 20-12, at NRG Stadium in Houston on Sunday afternoon. During the game, Miami Dolphins wide receiver Grant DuBose was injured. The 23-year-old wide receiver was ruled out with a head injury and carted off of the field. DuBose was taken to a hospital for evaluation.
"Dolphins WR Grant DuBose has been ruled out with a head injury. He is in stable condition and being taken to a local hospital for further evaluation," the Dolphins announced.
DuBose was showing movement, according to the team, and held in Houston overnight as a precaution. Following the game, Stroud made sure to let everyone know that he was thinking of DuBose.
"First off I just want to send Prayers to Grant … All glory goes to Jesus Christ," Stroud told CBS Sports sideline reporter Melanie Collins following the game.

Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa is thankful that DuBose is doing OK, too.
"I'm my toughest critic when it comes to ball placement, when it comes to knowing where to go with the ball and all of that," Tagovailoa said postgame. "And I just feel bad that I even put him in that situation to have gotten hit. It was tough to move on after that happened.
"I heard some good news that he's doing well, he's recovering, but we all know I've gone through something very similar, and that's no fun. You never want to be put in any of those situations. But you also understand that this is a physical sport, it's a contact sport. And again, I just think of what I could have done to have not put Grant in that situation."
