I do not know whether his footwork in 2023 or 2024 was better in QB theory, but the constant realignment in 2023 seemed to help him with accuracy. In 2024, his footwork seemed quieter (potentially better) but seemed to lead with more arm only throws with less accuracy. The schematic adjustments and line adjustment changes may make a difference.
Christian Harris was “nothing to worry about” too last spring. Houston teams are inveterate liars about health. It would be silly NOT to worry about little about CJ’s availability until we see him throwing well.
It's hard to know how much is optimism about injuries and how much is LYING. They have an incentive for both.
