Jordy Nelson Week 5 Outlook -

By Mike Tagliere (FantasyPros), Wed, Oct 3rd 2018, 9:24am EDT

It was good to see Nelson used in the slot once again in Week 4, as he ran 49 percent of his routes from there, while Seth Roberts ran just 20 routes all game. On Nelson's nine targets out of the slot, he's caught seven of them for 124 yards and a touchdown, so maybe it's a thing going forward. He'll see a lot of Desmond King this week, which is a good thing, because King has still yet to allow an incomplete pass while covering the slot. 14-of-14 targets have been completed for 116 yards, though no touchdowns just yet. Knowing Nelson has seen eight targets in each of the last two games while playing more in the slot, he may just be a serviceable WR4 for the remainder of the season, though his ceiling is a bit limited.
