Texans WR Jaelen Strong drops 20 pounds

Texans head coach Bill O'Brien was very critical of rookie Jaelen Strong for showing up to rookie minicamp out of shape. He weighed in at 231 pounds after weighing just 217 pounds at the NFL Rookie Combine. Now Strong says he is down to 211 pounds. Strong, Cecil Shorts and Nate Washington are expected to compete for snaps and targets this season. This could help him work his way out of the coach's doghouse.

Fantasy Analysis:

Strong slipped in the draft this year and issues like this may have contributed to his fall.
