Jordy Nelson

Jordy Nelson unlikely to pick it up for Packers in Week 9

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jordy Nelson is numberFire's 26th-ranked option at his position for Week 9 against the Detroit Lions.

What It Means:

Heading into the Packers' bye, Nelson was limited to only 1 catch on 4 targets for 13 yards in his first full outing without Aaron Rodgers under center. Brett Hundley completed just 12 passes for 87 yards in that one, and while things figure to be a little better in Week 9, there isn't a lot of reason for optimism in regards to Nelson's fantasy outlook.

numberFire's models project Nelson 6.0 targets, 3.5 receptions, 54.9 yards, and 0.30 touchdowns in Week 9, which would yield 9.0 FanDuel points at a cost of $6,900 versus the Lions.
