The Cleveland Browns face a tough home test against the Houston Texans in Week 10. Houston has recovered from an 0–4 start, winning three of its last four games and returning to the form expected of an AFC contender. Quarterback C.J. Stroud has been productive throughout the season, and over his last five games he has averaged 291.7 passing yards, with 13 touchdowns, two interceptions, and a 117.2 passer rating.
Cleveland’s offense could have difficulty matching Houston’s scoring, making the status of receiver Denzel Boston especially important. The second-round pick leads the Browns with 507 receiving yards and 32 catches, averaging 15.8 yards per reception. He was listed as questionable with a toe injury after being seen leaving Friday’s practice in a walking boot.
Boston is expected to play Sunday, barring an unexpected setback. The Browns and Texans are scheduled to kick off at 1 p.m. ET at Huntington Bank Stadium.
