Nelson was itemized as one of four former NFL players serving the role in the league’s notice about Chargers safety Derwin James, who was suspended one game for repeated violations of safety rules, the latest a helmet-to-helmet collision against Pittsburgh on Sunday.

The suspension initially was doled out by NFL vice president of football operations Jon Runyan, the father of ex-Packers offensive lineman Jon Runyan Jr. Should a player appeal, his case is heard by one of four former NFL players: Derrick Brooks (who heard the James case and upheld the suspension), Kevin Mawae, Ramon Foster or Nelson.

Previously, Brooks and James Thrash were the only two players who heard appeals. The addition of Nelson and doubling the overall number of appeals officers will help expedite the appeals process, according to Pro Football Talk.
