is a promising young 2029 ATH for Cabell Midland who showed athletic upside on film in his freshman year as a JV and varsity player. He did a nice job at wing in their Wing-T system and is an effective pass catcher as well. Nelson is also a rangy defensive back at safety with good speed and quickness for his age that will translate well moving forward as he develops physically.
