Nelson recorded two tackles in Friday's preseason loss to the Seahawks.

EDGE Analysis

Nelson is healthy and entering the season as a projected starter at cornerback. He finished fourth on the team in tackles last year but is still searching for his first career interception. If he stays healthy, there should be plenty of opportunities for him to pick off a pass or two with opposing offenses likely preferring to avoid two-time All Pro corner Marcus Peters.

Nelson sat out a few practices with the hamstring issue, but it doesn't look like he's in danger of missing much time in the preseason. The third-year cornerback is in line to serve in a backup role behind projected starters Marcus Peters and Phillip Gaines.

Nelson finished with nine tackles (eight solo) in Sunday's game against New Orleans

EDGE Analysis

Nelson filled in for Phillip Gaines (knee) in Sunday's contest. While the high tackle total bodes well in his IDP leagues, the fact that a corner made that many tackles likely indicates he was targeted a lot. Expect Gaines to retake the starting spot opposite Marcus Peters when he's healthy enough to play.
