FOREST » earlier in Mondays practice Nelson caught 15 passes from A

GREEN BAY, Wis. -- The closest thing Jordy Nelson did to real football during his first practice in 364 days came at the end of the session, when he ran some half-speed routes while fellow receivers Randall Cobb and Davante Adams acted as cornerbacks during a jog-through.No wonder Nelson called it hardly even a practice.By unofficial count, earlier in Mondays practice Nelson caught 15 passes from Aaron Rodgers and the other quarterbacks at the far end of the field while the rest of the team went through a special-teams period.Nelson appeared to run closer to full speed in that drill, although never against a defender.Nelson said he was more concerned about his conditioning than either of his knees -- the reconstruction of his right knee after his ACL tear last year on Aug. 23 and his left knee that was injured earlier this summer during his rehab.I felt better today, honestly, than I thought I was going to wind-wise, conditioning-wise, running those routes being full padded and everything, Nelson said after practice, which lasted 1 hour, 47 minutes.?I thought that was a good sign. Weve been working inside, so weve been getting the conditioning aspect in. But theres nothing like playing a game, and playing a game in Jacksonville Week 1, its going to be hot down there. Im sure everyone will be having to deal with it, and itll be part of it.Nelson said despite his extremely limited return, he believes hes on track to play against the Jaguars in the opener on Sept. 11.Absolutely. I dont think anythings changed, he said.With only one more full practice scheduled this week before Fridays preseason game at San Francisco, its unlikely Nelson would play against the 49ers.?And typically, coach Mike McCarthy doesnt play his starters in the preseason finale, although its unknown if he would make an exception for the Sept. 1 game at Kansas City to get Nelson some work before the regular-season opener against the Jaguars.Last week, Nelson actually warmed up in full pads before the preseason game against the Oakland Raiders on Thursday, one day after he was activated off the PUP list.Obviously, were progressing, Nelson said. Obviously, were going to see how the body reacts; thats how it is every time you do something, but it felt good out there. I dont know what the plan is for this weekend or next -- if its going to be similar to what we did last week or if itll be more. Its still in debate. Its a fluid situation of how everything reacts and how we feel.I mean, today felt great, so Im sure tomorrow well do a little bit more. Well see what the practice schedule looks like. Obviously, well eventually build into team periods. We should get plenty of that by the time Jacksonville comes around. Well see what we do this week, but I assume, just based off normal progression, that next week well probably get into some competitive periods. And then Jacksonville, I dont have any reason to think it wont be a normal week of preparation. Wholesale Nike NFL Jerseys Outlet . -- The Missouri Tigers might not have a roster full of superstars.
