Packers' Jordy Nelson having problems with other knee
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jordy Nelson is on the active/PUP list with what head coach Mike McCarthy described as a "hiccup" in his knee that didn't suffer an ACL tear last season.
He is still expected to be ready for Week 1, but the more that knee problems start to pile up, the more room for concern there is about how well the 31-year-old will return this season.
Nelson posted a career-high 140.05 Reception Net Expected Points (NEP) in 2014 before tearing his ACL before the 2015 season kicked off. Our fantasy football projections have him ranked fifth going into the season, but his age and injures make him a very risky pick in the first couple of rounds of fantasy drafts.
