The highlight of the game came on an 80-yard touchdown from Nelson in the third quarter, when he made a double move down the sideline and broke away for a huge score.
Fantasy impact: Nelson's ADP seemed pricey to some leading up to 2014, but so far he's proving why owners drafted him so early. He was targeted 16 times on Sunday, the most Aaron Rodgers has ever targeted a single receiver. He's clearly the favorite in an up-tempo passing offense.
Through two games, Nelson has 18 catches on 30 targets. Could you ask for any more volume? With Nelson’s big-play potential, he’s a lock to post WR1 numbers every week with that many targets from Rodgers. Hopefully you bought into the hype prior to the season.
