The Oakland Raiders announced on Thursday evening that they have released veteran receiver Jordy Nelson. The 33-year-old lasted just one season in the black and silver.
Nelson had 63 catches for 739 yards and just three touchdowns. Not exactly numbers that lived up to the $10 million he was paid last season.
This is true. The #Raiders paid WR Jordy Nelson $3M… then released him. https://t.co/WzhleGOxkW

The addition of Antonio Brown, a legit number one target, made Jordy expendable. No need to waste another $10 million on less targets.
Nobody would be surprised by a reunion in Green Bay with his good pal Aaron Rodgers. The quarterback is running the show in Green Bay after all.
