The awards capped a tremendous season for the Texans. After several losing seasons, Houston won the AFC South and won a playoff game under rookie head coach DeMeco Ryans. 

The Texans are the fourth team in history to have rookies win both awards. It is a testament to Stroud and Anderson's excellence. 

Stroud, in particular, enjoyed a phenomenal rookie season. The Ohio State product threw for over 4,000 yards and scored 26 touchdowns. 

Speaking to NFL Network, Stroud said, "It's an honor. To be voted amongst this rookie group and win this award is an honor."
