Wide receiver Jaelen Strong was claimed off waivers Tuesday by the Jacksonville Jaguars, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

Strong was placed on waivers by the Houston Texas on Monday.

The Jaguars' depth chart at wide receiver took a hit in Week 1 when No 1. wide receiver Allen Robinson was lost for the season with a knee injury.

The 2015 third-round pick was suspended for the first game of the season because of his February 2016 arrest for illegal possession of marijuana. Strong was riding in a car driven by Green Bay Packers cornerback Damarious Randall, a former teammate at Arizona State, and admitted to having the marijuana without a medical marijuana card.
