Nelson (ankle) is taking part in positional drills during Tuesday's practice, ESPN New York reports. Nelson was inactive over the weekend, as his severe ankle sprain from Week 4 continued to linger. That being said, it's encouraging to hear that Nelson is participating in portions of Tuesday's practice. Last weekend's rest could allow Nelson to be ready for this Thursday's game versus the Patriots, but the wideout's status will have to be monitored as kickoff approaches.
