Jordy Nelson Fantasy Update: Packers WR Plays Second Fiddle With 52 Receiving Yards

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jordy Nelson was targeted by Aaron Rodgers four times on Sunday and four times Nelson came up with a catch. However, he had just 52 yards. Now that's a nice pick up for a second or third wide receiver, but when we look at Greg Jennings' 147 yards pretty much everything else pales in comparison.

Through his first five games, Nelson was averaging just four catches per contest, but he's made the most out of that production. Against the St. Louis Rams, Nelson had just two catches, but he finished with 104 yards and a 93-yard touchdown reception. He's made two other touchdown receptions, one for 50 yards and the other for 84 yards. Nelson has demonstrated repeatedly that he has big-play ability.
