Green Bay Packers: Thank you, Jordy Nelson

Fifth all-time in receiving yards among Green Bay Packers wide receivers. Second in receiving touchdowns. First in single-season receiving yards and third in single-season receiving touchdowns.

A team-best nine-catch, 140-yard, one-touchdown performance in the Packers’ Super Bowl XLV victory. A former All-Pro and Pro Bowler. The NFL Comeback Player of the Year in 2016, and the NFL’s receiving touchdown leader the same season.

Jordy Nelson is, without doubt, one of the greatest wide receivers to every wear the Packers green and gold.

On Wednesday, NFL Network’s James Jones, Nelson’s former teammate, announced that Jordy is retiring from football.
