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.
