Jordy Nelson admits to 'heavy legs' during Jaguars game

In order for the Green Bay Packers offense to get back on track, star wide receiver Jordy Nelson needs to recapture the form that made him Pro Bowler and second-team All-Pro. That could take some time after missing all of the 2015 season with a torn ACL. Buried within a story by ESPN's Jason Wilde, Nelson admits to playing through "heavy legs" during the Packers' Week 1 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Statistically, Nelson had a rather pedestrian game by his standards. His 32 receiving yards off six catches (5.3 average) placed him behind Randall Cobb and Davante Adams on the day.
