Cheese curds, 2/20: Jordy Nelson credits Packers trainers for comeback

At this time last year, much of the Green Bay Packers' attention not focused on the draft centered on the recovery of Jordy Nelson. The former second-team All-Pro remained locked in rehab mode related to the ACL tear he suffered during the previous preseason.

Fast forward to 2017, and the injury seems lost in the distant past. Nelson didn't look quite as dominant last season as he had before the injury, but he re-established himself as a highly productive pass catcher. For his efforts, Nelson won Comeback Player of the Year honors.

While Nelson certainly deserves much of the credit for his big season, the receiver made sure to share credit with members of the Packers' training staff.
