Houston Texans rookie quarterback C.J. Stroud had a unique tradition at Ohio State that he brought with him to South Texas.
Now, since joining the Texans after being the second overall pick in April's NFL Draft, Stroud now has"23-30" handshakes that have helped him build chemistry with new teammates.
But there's one special"handshake" that goes public every time Stroud connects for a touchdown with fellow rookie Tank Dell. It's based on a viral TikTok dance called the squabble. Other NFL players have adopted is, but it's Stroud and Dell who put it on public display together.Dell has 19 receptions for 324 yards and two touchdowns on the season, and the two practiced the celebration during a team-building trip to Los Angeles.
"When they came out to LA. I brought a couple of my cousins over to our house, and we were all dancing, having a good time," Stroud."Tank was like, 'What's that dance? Bruh, that's hard.'" That was gonna be our handshake. So maybe we just kind of dapped it up and then started doing it.""Man, it's crazy because me and C.J.
"It was kind of one of those QB receiver love," Collins told ESPN."You gotta have a handshake. CJ is dropping dimes to me. We had to come up with something." Copyright ABG-SI LLC. SPORTS ILLUSTRATED is a registered trademark of ABG-SI LLC. All Rights Reserved.
