Jaelen Strong announces he suffered torn ACL

The Jacksonville Jaguars have dealt with a number of injuries to their wide receivers this season, and they lost another player at the position on Sunday.

In an Instagram post over the weekend, Jaelen Strong announced that he suffered a torn ACL during Sunday’s game against the San Francisco 49ers.

I never questioned God when he continued to overflow my life with blessings so I won’t question him now. I was cut in September by the Texans. Jags claimed me a day after. 14 weeks later I am finally active. My first reception goes for a TD. IM SO EXCITED to finally be out here w GANG grinding w my dogs and then I tear my ACL. I walked off on my own power cause i immediately thought of who was watching me, our youth! Let this be a testimony for you. No matter what knocks you down you gotta pull ya self back up and what better way to show you then this… can’t wait to watch my dogs in the OFFS! Love everybody who been in my corner. And ima come back on some savage shit and I promise you that w every bone in my body! Thank you #Strizzy

Strong, who began his career with the Houston Texans, was promoted to Jacksonville’s active roster last week with Allen Hurns battling an ankle injury. The Jags already lost Pro Bowler wide receiver Allen Robinson to a torn ACL at the start of the season.

Strong caught three passes for 38 yards and a touchdown during Sunday’s loss.
