Nelson has 2 fractured ribs

Packers WR Jordy Nelson fractured 2 ribs in Sunday's game against the Giants, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. "Will take an incredible effort to play" vs. the Cowboys this weekend, Rapoport adds. HC Mike McCarthy said that Nelson will spend the week rehabbing before potentially practicing on Saturday. At this point, though, we're assuming he won't play in Dallas. That'll leave Davante Adams, Randall Cobb and Geronimo Allison as Green Bay's top 3 WRs. TE Jared Cook could also pick up extra targets.

Packers WR Jordy Nelson (hip) was on the field and practicing on the 1st day of training camp Thursday.  He missed the majority of the offseason after undergoing hip surgery, but he returned to individual drills in June minicamp and appears at or close to 100% now.  Unless he suffers a setback in August, consider the hip a non-issue.  Nelson is fairly priced at his current 2.06 ADP.
