Coach Mike McCarthy plans to expand Jordy Nelson's route tree, including more snaps in the slot.
McCarthy plans to make Nelson "more of the focus" by taking advantage of matchups. "It's more about having the opportunity," said McCarthy, "because statistics speak for themselves." Nelson isn't going to repeat last year's ridiculous deep-ball efficiency or touchdown total, but the expanded offensive role should help offset the decline in those areas.
Mar 28 - 12:56 PM

Green Bay Press-Gazette
Jordy Nelson caught just three passes for 39 yards in the Packers' Divisional round loss to the Giants.
Nelson went off for 94 yards in Green Bay's regular-season meeting with New York, but it wasn't the same this time around. With the Giants' pass rush and secondary both clicking -- a smothering effect for any offense -- Aaron Rodgers was forced to focus on throwing to slot receivers and backs instead of his vertical receivers. Nelson still had a magical season, finishing as the No. 2 non-PPR fantasy wideout behind only Calvin Johnson. While Nelson's yards-per-catch average and efficiency will be virtually impossible to duplicate going forward, he should be viewed as a strong WR2 candidate for 2012.
Jan 15 - 9:06 PM
Jordy Nelson shredded the Lions' defense for 162 yards and three touchdowns on nine catches in Week 17.
Making physically dominant catches in traffic and downfield, Nelson put on a show at Lambeau in an otherwise meaningless game. His second- and third-quarter scores came from 36 and 58 yards out. Nelson finishes his breakout regular season with 68 catches for 1,263 yards and a whopping 15 touchdowns. He'll get a week to rest as Green Bay owns a first-round playoff bye.
Jan 1 - 5:22 PM
According to ESPN Stats & Info, Aaron Rodgers has completed 59-of-81 throws for a 72.8 completion rate and a league-leading 154.5 passer rating on throws to Jordy Nelson.
It's an amazing stat and further proof that Nelson is one of the most effective and underrated receivers in the league. He's gaining Rodgers' trust at the expense of Jermichael Finley's production. Nelson certainly deserved a Pro Bowl spot, though it's hard to quibble with the foursome of Calvin Johnson, Larry Fitzgerald, Steve Smith, and Greg Jennings.

Packers team physician, Dr. Pat McKenzie, is "hopeful" that RB Alex Green (ACL surgery) will be ready for training camp.
Already running four days a week, Green has graduated to "a little bit" of cutting. He's stayed ahead of schedule in his rehab all offseason. "My speed is picking up daily," Green said. "I'm definitely excited with where I'm at."

Packers FB John Kuhn has been diagnosed with an "MCL injury," and will not require surgery.
It's the best possible news for the would-be Pro Bowler, and means he should be back to 100 percent well before training camp. Kuhn signed a three-year, $7.5 million contract in July before leading the Packers in rushing TDs this season.

Greg Jennings (rib contusion) is expected to participate in the Pro Bowl.
"It's better than we thought initially after the game, so that's good news," coach Mike McCarthy said Wednesday. It's still possible Jennings will ultimately skip the January 29 exhibition game, but it's clear the injury he suffered in Sunday's loss to the Giants isn't a long-term concern. Coming off a campaign where he made 67 catches for 949 yards and nine touchdowns in 13 games, Jennings will make $3.9 million in the final season of a four-year contract in 2012.

Packers coach Mike McCarthy acknowledged that TE Andrew Quarless (ACL, MCL surgery) will be "challenged" to be ready for training camp.
Quarless is a candidate to open the season on the PUP list. "Andrew, just from a timetable standpoint, is a question mark," McCarthy admitted. The Packers' top three tight ends to open the year should be Jermichael Finley, Tom Crabtree, and D.J. Williams. Quarless could reenter the mix around midseason.
