CLEVELAND, Ohio — The Browns have signed wide receiver Jaelen Strong, who’s eager to prove himself after battling back from a torn ACL at the end of the 2017 season.

Strong’s agent, Robert L. Ray of Ambition Sports Management Group, revealed his client’s up and down journey back to the field.

“On the road to recovery he has had his good days and he has had his bad days,’’ said in an Instagram post. “Nonetheless, he stayed focused and he endured the test of time and patience. ASMG would like to thank the (Cleveland Browns). Your organization is getting an extremely hungry football player and I can’t wait to see him eat real, real soon.’’

Strong, 25, was a third-round pick of the Texans (70th overall) in 2015 out of Arizona State and has played three NFL seasons.

On Oct. 8, 2015 against the Colts, his first two catches were both good for touchdowns, including a Hail Mary at the end of the first half. He finished the year with 14 receptions for 161 yards and two TDs. Midway through his second season, he suffered a serious ankle sprain and was ultimately placed on injured reserve. He was limited to only 14 catches for 131 yards and no TDs in eight games.

In 2017, Strong was suspended for the Texans’ season opener after being charged with marijuana possession in the offseason, and he played in week two before they waived him. Strong was claimed by the Jaguars on Sept. 19, but released and re-signed to the practice squad. He was promoted to the active roster on Dec. 23, and was active for his first game in week 16 against the 49ers.

Strong caught three passes for 38 yards and a touchdown, but suffered the torn ACL and was placed on injured reserve. The Jaguars released him on April 30, and he sat out of football last year.

He joins a receiving corps that includes Jarvis Landry, Antonio Callaway, Rashard Higgins, and pending free agent Breshad Perriman.

Strong (6-2, 217) has played in 20 career games with three starts, and started one playoff game. He has 31 receptions passes for 330 yards with four touchdowns. Coming out in 2015, he ran a 4.4 in the 40 and posted on Twitter in November that he’s back and stronger than ever.
