GREEN BAY, Wis. -- The closest thing Jordy Nelson did to real football during his first practice in 364 days came at the end of the session, when he ran some half-speed routes while fellow receivers Randall Cobb and Davante Adams acted as cornerbacks during a jog-through.No wonder Nelson called it hardly even a practice.By unofficial count, earlier in Mondays practice Nelson caught 15 passes from Aaron Rodgers and the other quarterbacks at the far end of the field while the rest of the team went through a special-teams period.Nelson appeared to run closer to full speed in that drill, although never against a defender.Nelson said he was more concerned about his conditioning than either of his knees -- the reconstruction of his right knee after his ACL tear last year on Aug. 23 and his left knee that was injured earlier this summer during his rehab.I felt better today, honestly, than I thought I was going to wind-wise, conditioning-wise, running those routes being full padded and everything, Nelson said after practice, which lasted 1 hour, 47 minutes.?I thought that was a good sign. Weve been working inside, so weve been getting the conditioning aspect in. But theres nothing like playing a game, and playing a game in Jacksonville Week 1, its going to be hot down there. Im sure everyone will be having to deal with it, and itll be part of it.Nelson said despite his extremely limited return, he believes hes on track to play against the Jaguars in the opener on Sept. 11.Absolutely. I dont think anythings changed, he said.With only one more full practice scheduled this week before Fridays preseason game at San Francisco, its unlikely Nelson would play against the 49ers.?And typically, coach Mike McCarthy doesnt play his starters in the preseason finale, although its unknown if he would make an exception for the Sept. 1 game at Kansas City to get Nelson some work before the regular-season opener against the Jaguars.Last week, Nelson actually warmed up in full pads before the preseason game against the Oakland Raiders on Thursday, one day after he was activated off the PUP list.Obviously, were progressing, Nelson said. Obviously, were going to see how the body reacts; thats how it is every time you do something, but it felt good out there. I dont know what the plan is for this weekend or next -- if its going to be similar to what we did last week or if itll be more. Its still in debate. Its a fluid situation of how everything reacts and how we feel.I mean, today felt great, so Im sure tomorrow well do a little bit more. Well see what the practice schedule looks like. Obviously, well eventually build into team periods. We should get plenty of that by the time Jacksonville comes around. Well see what we do this week, but I assume, just based off normal progression, that next week well probably get into some competitive periods. And then Jacksonville, I dont have any reason to think it wont be a normal week of preparation. Christian Kirk Womens Jersey . R.J.

LOUIS -- St.Sam Billings struck 54 off 34 balls on his IPL debut for Delhi Daredevils, a performance which England batting coach Mark Ramprakash hailed as exceptional. Billings has struggled for regular cricket of late, kept out of a high-performing England side that reached the World T20 final, and a Delhi team with overseas talent like Quinton de Kock, JP Duminy and Carlos Brathwaite keeping him on the bench. Its what made Billings performance - in place of the under-the-weather Duminy - in Delhis 27-win over the Kolkata Knight Riders all the more impressive.It was a huge ask for Sam to come in and play as fluently as he did, against a top attack, said Ramprakash ahead Delhis Tuesdays clash with Gujarat Lions. He has the ability, but when you havent played any matches for quite a period of time, it becomes very difficult.Sams great asset is that hes young, fresh, and doesnt really have any fear. He goes out there and gives it a crack - whether he gets out first ball or makes fifty, he is going to enjoy himself come what may.He didnt look rusty at all. Its really pleasing to have English players involved in the tournament, and when they play well - excelling on the world stage - youre very happy about that.There is very healthy competition in the England one-day side, there are a number of batsmen who could play for England, and bat in several different positions.Sam is a very adaptable cricketer, and his innings showed that. He came in in the fifth over, inside the powerplay, so he can play very good orthodox cricket shots, but he also has the improvisation of a Jos Buttler. He really could bat anywhere for England, hes that skilful.Billings came to the crease with Delhi in trouble at 32-3, but put on 105 for the fourth wicket with Karun Nair - who also struck fifty - with his expert play of spin standing out. Kent and England’s Sam Billings was the standout performer on his IPL debut for the Delhi Daredevils.dddddddddddd Experienced IPL and international spinners, Sunil Narine, Brad Hogg and Piyush Chawla were taken for 85 runs from the combined nine overs.Thats what makes his innings so impressive, added Ramprakash. His team were in trouble, yet he stayed true to what he is very good at.His play against spin was exceptional - he came down the wicket, attacked Narine, Hogg, but also used the depth of his crease very well and knocked the ball around nicely.Reading Sams body language at the wicket, he looked like he was having great fun, he seems to have a very nice rapport with Nair, there was a lot of smiling and laughing between the two.The Delhi franchise is one that is not particularly fancied, not one of the favourites, and therefore perhaps its allowing the team to go out and just enjoy the competition, enjoy the occasion - that certainly fits for Sam. Sam Billings has found opportunities limited for England so far Although Billings doesnt currently occupy a permanent spot in the England side, further opportunities to display his talent in the IPL could see that change - starting with Delhis game against the Gujarat on Tuesday.The Delhi selectors should be very seriously considering letting him play now, said Ramprakash. He gave some energy to the team and was very assured.Sam understands that he may not play every match, but he is the sort of character that when he does get the opportunity to play, he will back himself.He committed to his shots so well, there was no indecision - thats very important in T20, you need to be very certain in what youre trying to do.There is some very healthy competition among the Delhi overseas players, but Sam has certainly given the selectors something to think about.Watch the Delhi Daredevils take on the Gujarat Lions from 3pm on Sky Sports 3 on Tuesday.
