Jordy Nelson had 'heavy legs' Week 1 for Packers

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jordy Nelson said he had "heavy legs" against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 1.

What It Means:

The 31-year-old wideout didn't log a single snap in the preseason, so this isn't surprising and he still found the end zone in his first game back from the ACL tear that cost Nelson his entire 2015 season. He played 54-of-64 snaps in Week 1 and didn't suffer any setbacks. Nelson squares off against a Minnesota Vikings defense Sunday that is expected to be without Xavier Rhodes.

We project Nelson to catch 6 passes for 79 yards and 0.43 touchdowns in Week 2. He ranked 78th in Reception Net Expected Points per target in the first week of the season.
