Dome Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 Quote The team released a statement on the suspension: Jaelen Strong of the Houston Texans has been suspended without pay for the first game of the 2017 regular season for violating the NFL Policy and Program for Substances of Abuse. Strong will be eligible to return to the Texans' active roster on Monday, September 11 following the team's September 10 game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000833996/article/texans-jaelen-strong-suspended-one-game-by-nfl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xmad Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 So basically Tom Savage is gonna throw it 20 times to DeAndre Hopkins. Nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nex_Gen Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 How has Strong been for the Texans? Liked him a lot during the draft process. I feel like he's flashed on the field, but never could seem to get out of O'Brien's doghouse one way or the other.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forge Posted August 24, 2017 Share Posted August 24, 2017 At some point, aren't they just going to cut this dude? I feel like he's been in BOB's doghouse from the very start, and it doesn't appear to be getting any better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tugboat Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 It just seems like such a random weird suspension length. Like...hey, you did a bad thing...take a game off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheKillerNacho Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 I remember thinking Strong was a really great pick in the 3rd round for the Texans. After that I don't think I've heard about him or seen him at all. Looking at his stats, I see why. He'll be lucky if he makes the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Castiron Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Jalen can't even get suspended right. At least do PEDs man. It's not like you can't use the help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tom cody Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Interesting. It's just 1 game so hopefully he'll still learn a lesson and be back ready to play for Week 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pad Level Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Wheels up for Wendell Williams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedRider Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Upon week 2 return... Jaelen: Hey guys, I'm back! Watson: You were suspended? Savage: Who are you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ET80 Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 He's actually had a solid camp and looked to have the inside track on the #2 WR role over Braxton Miller (who has been missing valuable reply with an mystery ankle injury). They'll put Hopkins in bubble wrap for the rest of the offseason, and let Bruce Ellington, Wendell Williams, Devin Street, Dres Anderson and Riley McCarron fight for snaps. If Braxton can play, he'll play every offensive snap in the next two games, because he's drastically behind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Texans could/will be down Miller, Fuller and Strong for week 1. who would start opposite of Hopkins? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
