UFC Star Derrick Lewis is saying that CJ Stroud might’ve been cursed by Amber Rose and Kim Kardashian following Texans loss.
When the Houston Texans lost to the Patriots, fans looked for answers. Bad play calling, missed tackles and football stuff. Derrick Lewis looked at all that and said, “No! This is spiritual.”
The UFC heavyweight star jumped into the conversation after the Texans loss and dropped a theory only Derrick Lewis could deliver. According to him, CJ Stroud is cursed. Not by injuries, not by defenses but by Amber Rose and Kim Kardashian.

Yes. Amber Rose and Kim Kardashian.
On Sunday night, Stroud and the Texans fell to a 28-16 defeat to the Patriots in their divisional round game at the Gillette Stadium, bring an abrupt end to their season.
As the dust settles on his disappointing performance, UFC star Derrick Lewis – a Houston native and die-hard Texans fans – has offered his take on the situation.
Lewis, who will fight at UFC 324 on Saturday night, was asked: ‘What moves would you like to see the Texans make for next season?’
The MMA star replied: ‘We’ve got to see what’s going on with CJ.
‘Ever since we seen him turn up with Amber Rose at the softball game a few years ago, and Kim Kardashian, I’m like… it might be a curse for him’.
This might’ve been the genesis of CJ Stroud, Amber Rose and Kim Kardashian alleged curse.
Back in 2024, Stroud made headlines after being spotted alongside influencer and model Amber Rose – who famously dated Kanye West between 2008 and 2010.
The duo were seen together at Travis Scott’s charity softball game in February that year, which quickly sparked rumors that they were an item.
However, Rose took to Instagram after to deny any romantic connection between the pair, saying she didn’t even know the newly-crowned Offensive Rookie of the Year and that he was merely giving her a ride home.
‘We literally don’t know each other and only met yesterday at a softball game,’ Rose began. Rose is 18 years Stroud’s senior.
Just five days prior to that, Stroud had also been spotted in Kim Kardashian’s box at Super Bowl LVIII where he watched the Chiefs defeat the 49ers on the day.
In the end, this was classic Derrick Lewis. A wild comment dropped at the perfect time. It shifted attention, and sparked laughs. It gave sports Twitter something new to argue about.
The Texans still lost, CJ Stroud is still talented and Derrick Lewis is still undefeated in saying whatever pops into his head.
