Packers sign Jordy Nelson to 4-year extension reportedly worth $39 million

The Green Bay Packers signed wide receiver Jordy Nelson to a multi-year contract extension, the team announced Saturday.

Terms of the deal were not disclosed, but according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, it's worth $39 million over four years, with $14.2 million guaranteed.

The new deal works out to slightly less than the $10 million Nelson was believed to be seeking, but reportedly includes an $11.5 million signing bonus.

"Jordy's hard work and dedication has made him a good player, teammate and a core member of this team. We are pleased to come to an agreement that will extend his Packers career," general manager Ted Thompson said in a statement.

In 16 games last season, Nelson had 85 receptions for 1,314 yards and eight touchdowns.
