Of note, when I removed nvidia I saw

Note that some packages seem (true/false?) to be FC23 related?
Is Package kmod-nvidia-4.5.6-200.fc23.x86_64.x86_64 1:358.16-2.fc24 a
23 or 24 package?
Could there be contention if they are fc23 packages?
Yes, they are F23 related and No there isn't any contention. The kmod packages are
kernel
version specific. So you'll have one for each kernel installed on your system. Since
you
just recently upgraded from F23 to F24 you'll still have several F23 kernels installed
and
the associated kmod.
