Former Packers and Raiders receiver Jordy Nelson is retiring, according to NFL Network analyst and former Packers teammate James Jones. 

Nelson played for the Raiders in 2018 after 9 seasons with the Packers, but was ultimately cut after the team acquired Antonio Brown from the Steelers. 

Nelson, who played college football at Kansas State, registered four seasons over 1,000 receiving yards in his career, according to Sports Illustrated.
