GB WR Jordy Nelson - Week 3 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 vs. Cincinnati Bengals

If you played Jordy Nelson last week, you went away unhappy as he left after the team's first offensive series without a catch because of a quad injury. He's still dealing with that issue but told reporters that he plans on playing. This is dicey, since that injury could crop up again. In two games, the Bengals have allowed just 13 receptions to opposing wide receivers, but that came against Baltimore and Houston, a pair of QB-challenged teams. If you can get away without playing Nelson, it's probably safer to do so. But if he plays, look for No. 2 WR production. Check his status Sunday.

GB WR Jordy Nelson - Week 2 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 2 at Atlanta Falcons

Jordy Nelson got off to a solid start last week, catching 7 of his 8 targets for 79 yards and a score, despite a tough matchup against Seattle. The Falcons defense isn't nearly as tough a nut to crack and Nelson should find some room downfield. You have to like Nelson as a No. 1 wide receiver play this week in all formats in a potential shootout.

GB WR Jordy Nelson - Week 1 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 1 vs. Seattle Seahawks

Jordy Nelson has a difficult matchup ahead since he'll likely draw Richard Sherman quite a bit against the Seattle Seahawks. But Nelson is a scoring threat no matter what cornerback covers him. Last season, he managed 6 catches for just 41 yards in against the Seahawks at Lambeau Field. He also, however, scored twice, making it a very nice game.

Touchdowns can be a lot to rely on, but Nelson did have 14 last season, including 9 at home. Despite the tough matchup, he should be in your lineup.

GB WR Jordy Nelson - 2017 Fantasy Football Outlook

Fantasy Upside

After missing the 2015 season with a torn ACL, Packers wide receiver Jordy Nelson returned to snare 97 passes for 1,257 yards and 14 touchdowns on a career-high 152 targets. He plays in a receiver-friendly offense with arguably the game's best quarterback. There's a lot to like.

Fantasy Downside

At 32, Nelson's slide could start at any time.

2017 Bottom Line

Nelson is "Steady Eddie" when it comes to the receiver position. You can pencil him in for 1,200-plus yards and double-digit touchdowns if he plays a full season. He's reached both figures in the same season three times since 2011. He's been pretty durable over the course of his career and is the clear No. 1 receiver in one of the league's top offenses. Some other receivers might finish with more overall catches - his career high is 98 - but Aaron Rodgers can throw the ball into any spot and Nelson is good enough to win a game single-handedly. Don't let him slip past the early part of the second round.

GB WR Jordy Nelson - Week 20, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

NFC Championship at Atlanta
Check Nelson's status on Friday after he practiced on a limited basis Wednesday and Thursday. He could have a limited role on Sunday, though his rib injury could make that difficult. Nelson is an obvious red zone target and that might be enough to be productive, but if he does play, don't expect his usual workload.

GB WR Jordy Nelson - Week 18, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Wild Card Round vs. New York Giants
Nelson had six receptions for 66 yards last week as Detroit did a good job keeping him in check. The Giants did the first time around as well back in Week 5, limiting Nelson to a line of 4-38-1. They have been solid all season, allowing just 17 touchdown passes, just 11 of which have gone to receivers. Given Nelson's TD output this season, it could be tough to keep him out of the end zone in back-to-back games. That only happened one time this season. And he's a guy Aaron Rodgers will force feed the ball to. I wouldn't bet against Nelson having an impactful game.

GB WR Jordy Nelson - Week 17, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 17 at Detroit
Nelson ripped up the Vikings defense - and, apparently, their game plan - with nine receptions for a season-high 154 yards with two scores last week. It marked his third multiple-TD game of the season and second in the past three weeks. He's nearly been cash money all season long and his first multi-TD game this season came in the first meeting with the Lions when he posted a line of 6-102-2. With other top wideouts sitting out this week, Nelson could be the play of the week.
