Is Robert Nelson the next A.J. Bouye?

It was not always an easy road for Houston Texans cornerback Robert Nelson, or Nelly-Prime as some call him.

Nelson was not a member of the 2014 NFL Draft class. He did not get to hear his name called on any of the three days of the draft. He has bounced around the NFL from the Cleveland Browns to the Arizona Cardinals to now the Texans.

Nelson signed with the Texans on January 11, 2016. It was a minor move that was not talked about until training camp months later- when Nelson’s lateral quickness and overall agility took over.
