"I’m not saying I’m on the same level as CJ, however if a youngster flips on the tv and watches me and decides that maybe someday they want to be just like me; I hope that their dream also brings them closer to our lord and savior. We have imperfections. But we must keep the faith," Kraft wrote.

Stroud told reporters he received praise from around the league about how open he was.

"I’m not doing it to look cool. I’m doing it because that’s what God called me to do," the rookie quarterback said, via FOX 26 Houston.

Unlike Stroud, Kraft’s faith wasn’t a topic of conversation going into the divisional round.

Stroud’s faith was brought up in the days ahead of the playoff game as the "Sunday Night Football" X account posted a clip leaving out the quarterback’s comments about Jesus Christ. The post didn’t show the remarks but instead had Stroud talking about his love for the city of Houston.
