Report: Nelson to visit Seahawks, Saints after meeting with Raiders
Recently released receiver Jordy Nelson is in high demand.
The former Green Bay Packer has scheduled visits with the Seattle Seahawks and New Orleans Saints, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports, citing a source. Nelson will make those trips after his visit with the Oakland Raiders on Wednesday.
Nelson spent 10 years in Green Bay and was a cap casualty Tuesday, released to save the team more than $10 million in cap room.
After missing the 2015 season with a knee injury, he returned to win Comeback Player of the Year with a 1,257-yard, 14-touchdown campaign. Last year, he played in 15 games and tallied just 482 yards and six scores with quarterback Aaron Rodgers out for much of the year with a broken collarbone.
The Raiders, Seahawks, and Saints each enter free agency with more than $25 million in cap space.
