Validation.
The two catch, two touchdown performance by Jaelen Strong last Thursday night was a form of that, in the eyes of quarterback Brian Hoyer.
"It’s just validating what we’ve started to see in practice with Jaelen," Hoyer said. "He’s practiced really hard, whether it be scout team with the offense or whatever it might be. You really see him coming along."
In Week 5 Strong was active for just the second game of his NFL career. He didn't play in Week 1, despite being active. He came down with a Hail Mary score at the end of the first half, and was all by his lonesome for a third quarter scoring catch.
