Packers' Pierre Strong: Joining Green Bay's active roster
The Packers signed Strong (hamstring) to their active roster from their practice squad Thursday.
Strong was tending to a hamstring injury early in the season, but now he's presumably back in game shape. Green Bay is dead last in rushing offense by a wide margin through the first four weeks of the season, so there's no great reason for the team not to give Strong a couple opportunities to tote the rock once he has acclimated himself. Over 14 games with the Browns in 2024, he carried the ball 26 times for 108 yards, and he caught 14 of 22 targets for 104 yards.

Pierre Strong: Dealing with hamstring injury
Strong, who is on Green Bay's practice squad, is currently managing a hamstring issue, Bill Huber of SI.com reports.
Strong had been a candidate to be elevated for the Packers' season opener Sunday versus Minnesota since Josh Jacobs is on the Commissioner's Exempt List, but that's presumably no longer in play. It's not clear how severe Strong's injury is, and given that Jacobs could be out multiple games, Strong could still be a gameday practice-squad elevation down the line once he gets healthy.

Pierre Strong: Signs with practice squad
The Packers signed Strong to the practice squad Monday.
The Packers cut Strong on Sunday as part of the team's effort to reach an initial 53-man roster. The running back promptly rejoined the team and will look to prove himself worthy of elevation to the active roster if MarShawn Lloyd, Chris Brooks or Kaleb Johnson must miss time with injury.

Pierre Strong: Let go after Johnson trade
Strong was cut by the Packers on Sunday, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Strong fell out of the Packers' plans when Green Bay traded for Steelers running back Kaleb Johnson on Sunday. The 27-year-old Strong has appeared in 46 regular-season games, split between the Patriots and Browns, though he hasn't dressed for one since the 2024 campaign.

Packers' Pierre Strong: Inks deal with Green Bay
The Packers signed Strong to a reserve/future contract Monday.
Strong signed with Green Bay in September as additional depth at running back, but he did not appear in a game this season. The 27-year-old will participate in the Packers' offseason activities and compete for a spot on their active roster next season.

Pierre Strong: Returns to practice squad
Strong reverted to the Packers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Strong was brought up to the Packers' active roster Saturday to give the team additional depth in the backfield. However, he ended up being a healthy scratch for Sunday's loss to the Broncos after Josh Jacobs (knee) and Emanuel Wilson (illness) were cleared to play. Strong hasn't played a single regular-season snap despite being elevated from the practice squad three times, and he won't be allowed to play for Green Bay for the rest of 2025 unless he's signed to the active roster.

Packers' Pierre Strong: Inactive for Week 15
Strong (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Broncos, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
Strong was elevated from the practice squad Saturday, but his services are not needed Sunday after Josh Jacobs (knee) and Emanuel Wilson (illness) were both cleared to play. Strong has been elevated three times this season, so he'll need to be signed to the active roster in order to play for the Packers for the rest of 2025.

Packers' Pierre Strong: Joins active roster
Strong was elevated from the Packers' practice squad to the active roster Saturday.
With Josh Jacobs (knee, questionable) and Emanuel Wilson (illness, questionable) both on the Packers' injury report, Strong's elevation provides much-needed depth at running back. If Jacobs or Wilson were to miss Sunday's matchup against the Broncos, Strong would likely play a depth role in Green Bay's backfield.

Pierre Strong: Back to practice squad
Strong reverted to the Packers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Strong was elevated to the active roster for the second time this season ahead of Sunday's game against the Vikings, and he was active for the contest after the Packers ruled out Josh Jacobs (knee). Despite Jacobs' absence, Strong didn't up seeing the field during Sunday's win, as Emanuel Wilson and Chris Brooks handled all of the offensive snaps out of the backfield. Strong could be elevated to the active roster for a third and final time ahead of Thursday's Thanksgiving Day game against the Lions if Jacobs is not cleared to play.

Packers' Pierre Strong: Elevated for Week 12
The Packers elevated Strong from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.
Strong has been on Green Bay's practice squad since September and was already brought up to the active roster once this season as extra depth in the backfield. The fourth-year pro will be available to play a similar role again for Week 12 if Josh Jacobs is unable to play.

Pierre Strong: Returns to practice squad
Strong reverted to the Packers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
Strong was a healthy scratch after being elevated to the active roster ahead of Sunday's 27-23 win over the Cardinals. The running back was expected to fill a complementary role in the backfield due to Josh Jacobs being a game-time decision due to an illness and a calf injury, but Jacobs ultimately garnered active status and handled the lion's share of the workload. Strong can be elevated two more times before he'd have to be officially signed to the active roster.

Packers' Pierre Strong: Healthy scratch Week 7
Strong (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Mike Spofford of the Packers' official site reports.
With Josh Jacbos (calf/illness) officially cleared to play, Strong will observe Sunday's game in street clothes while Emanuel Wilson and Chris Brooks provide depth out of the backfield. The Packers elevated Strong from the practice squad Saturday, and he can be brought up twice more by Green Bay this season.

Packers' Pierre Strong: Elevated from practice squad
The Packers elevated Strong from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.
Strong caught on with the Packers' practice squad in early September after being let go by the Browns with an injury settlement. The 2022 fourth-rounder will be available to play against the Cardinals on Sunday and will provide the Packers backfield depth, as Josh Jacobs' status is up in the air due to a calf injury and illness.

Pierre Strong: Headed to Green Bay
The Packers signed Strong (concussion) to the practice squad Monday.
Strong reached an injury settlement with the Browns this past Tuesday, and his addition to the Packers' practice squad indicates that he has cleared the league's concussion protocol. The 2022 fourth-rounder would be a top candidate to be elevated to Green Bay's active roster should the Packers require additional backfield depth during the season. Strong appeared in 14 regular-season games for the Browns last year and logged 26 carries for 108 yards and 14 catches (on 22 targets) for 104 yards. Israel Abanikanda was cut from the Packers' practice squad in a corresponding move.

Pierre Strong: Let go from IR
The Browns waived Strong (concussion) from injured reserve with an injury settlement Tuesday, Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.
Strong was set to miss the entire 2025 season after reverting to the Browns' IR, but the injury settlement will allow him to sign with another team once he clears the league's five-step concussion protocol. The 2022 fourth-rounder appeared in 14 regular-season games for the Browns last year and logged 26 carries for 108 yards and 14 catches (on 22 targets) for 104 yards.

Browns' Pierre Strong: Reverts to IR
Strong (undisclosed) cleared waivers Wednesday and reverted to injured reserve, per the NFL's official media site.
Strong was evaluated for a concussion during the team's final preseason game, but there was never a confirmed diagnosis. The 2022 fourth-round pick will remain on injured reserve for the rest of the season unless he reaches an injury settlement with the Browns. Ahead of Week 1, the Browns have running backs Jerome Ford, Dylan Sampson and Raheim Sanders in the mix while Quinshon Judkins remains unsigned.
