C.J. Stroud believes the Dallas Cowboys' Dak Prescott was one of the NFL's top five quarterbacks during the 2023 season.

The Houston Texans star included himself and Prescott alongside the Kansas City Chiefs' Patrick Mahomes, Baltimore Ravens' Lamar Jackson, and Buffalo Bills' Josh Allen in a top-five list shared on Instagram.

Stroud expanded on his list during an appearance on Barstool Sports' MILLION DOLLAZ WORTH OF GAME podcast with hosts Gillie Da King and Wallo267, according to a post teasing an upcoming Sunday episode.

"Dak is tough, bro," Stroud said. "Dak is one of the most accurate quarterbacks in the world."

Stroud also switched out Allen for the Philadelphia Eagles' Jalen Hurts when listing his top signal callers on the show.

The reigning Offensive Rookie of the Year is slated to face off against most of the players on his list when his second NFL season begins this fall.

Stroud and the Texans are slated for a series of must-watch matchups when they face Allen and the Bills in Week 5, Prescott and the Cowboys in Week 11, Mahomes and Chiefs in Week 16 and Jackson and the Ravens in Week 17.
