Over the past two weeks, J.J. Nelson has led Arizona Cardinals pass-catchers in targets (18). With that opportunity, Nelson has produced stat lines of 3-132-1 and 5-38-1 against the Seattle Seahawks and New Orleans Saints, respectively.

Now entrenched as one of the Cardinals' primary offensive weapons, Nelson will square off against the Los Angeles Rams, a team that just allowed Colin Kaepernick to throw for 266 yards and 2 touchdowns. This also comes one week after Russell Wilson threw for three scores against them.

On the season, the Rams pass defense ranks 15th, according to numberFire's schedule-adjusted metrics, giving Nelson a positive Week 17 matchup.
