Packers WR Nelson initially diagnosed with torn ACL
The Sports Xchange
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jordy Nelson left Sunday’s preseason game against the Pittsburgh Steelers with a knee injury, and NFL.com reported that the Packers’ initial diagnosis is a torn ACL.
The team is awaiting results from an MRI exam to confirm the extent of the injury, but if it is indeed a torn ACL, Nelson probably will miss the entire season, which would be a major blow to the Packers’ passing game.
Nelson was injured when he went up to catch an Aaron Rodgers pass in the first quarter and went down to the turf immediately. He was not touched by a defender. Nelson got up and limped off the field.
Nelson had the best season of his career in 2014, when he was named to the Pro Bowl after catching 98 passes for 1,519 yards and 13 touchdowns.
Randall Cobb, Davante Adams and Ty Montgomery are among the other wide receivers available for the Packers.
