NFL: Biggest Offseason Addition for Each NFL Team
We don’t know if Jordy Nelson is going to be able to return to the form we saw in 2016 after a disappointing 2017 season, but the Oakland Raiders are definitely banking on it.
With Derek Carr also coming off of a down year, perhaps the two can re-kindle their Pro Bowl abilities in tandem.
Nelson has been one of the best receivers in the NFL since 2011 when he busted out with a 15-touchdown season.
Since then, he’s racked up 48 touchdown catches despite missing a full season due to injury.
Nelson can help rejuvenate the Raiders’ passing attack, which would also rejuvenate their playoff hopes.
They need him to step up in a big way.
