Last spring, there was a viral tragedy that centered around a teen trying to take a selfie with a squirrel. (Sharpened claws, soulless eyes, moves like it snorted something in a Miami bathroom—who wouldn’t?) The teen lured it, he posed, and right as the camera snapped, the whiskered sociopath blitzed him in a murderous rage and declared Mortal Kombat.
That squirrel is Steven Nelson’s spirit animal.
2015 Projection: Receives a healthy amount of snaps as the team’s slot cornerback and excels on special teams.
