Jordy Nelson (ribs) not expected to play for Packers in NFC Championship
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jordy Nelson is "a bit of a longshot to play" in Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the Atlanta Falcons, according to ESPN Packers reporter Rob Demovsky.
What It Means:
Demovsky believes Nelson has "only a small chance" of playing due to the broken ribs he suffered in the Wild Card Round. He shouldn't be ruled out just yet, but the Packers don't sound very optimistic about Nelson's status.
If Nelson winds up making a surprise start on Sunday, we peg him for 42 receiving yards and 0.32 touchdowns on 3 catches as our sixth-best fantasy wideout for the Championship Round.
