There have been a lot of talented wide receivers who have come through the Green Bay Packers organization over the years. Among those players is Jordy Nelson. Between 2008 and 2017, Nelson played for the Green Bay Packers (he played for the Oakland Raiders in 2018).
Over the course of his career, he accumulated more than 600 receptions, 8,500 yards, and 72 touchdowns. He won Super Bowl XLV with the Packers during the 2010-2011 season, which highlighted his career.
Today, he was back in Green Bay.

In addition to catching 550 balls in team history, Nelson ranks third in receiving touchdowns with 69, and admires what LaFleur and Love are doing on offense as McCarthy’s successors. After replacing Rodgers as the Packers’ full-time starting quarterback, Love threw 32 touchdown passes, which ranked second in the NFL behind McCarthy’s Cowboys quarterback, Dak Prescott.
Needless to say, fans were excited to see #87 back:
