Houston Texans: Why Jaelen Strong had to appeal his suspension

As reported by the Chron’s John McClain, the Houston Texans caught wind of Jaelen Strong being suspended one game for a possession of marijuana charge dating back to February 2016. I honestly thought that this particular concern had been swept under the rug but the NFL still apparently wants to address it. The league actually has to because in the rule book, this level of punishment is mandatory. This news certainly isn’t the best to grap considering how thin we are as far as depth at his position going into the season.

Strong was arrested at the same time last year after being pulled over by police in Scottsdale, Ariz.
