2024 Fantasy Outlook
Nixon was a key player for the Packers the last two years, and the two sides decided to extend their partnership for three more seasons. He's filled a versatile role and figures to continue seeing ample action both on defense and special teams. The latter should come as no surprise, as he was named first-team All-Pro in both of the past two campaigns at the returner spot. Read Past Outlooks
Solid outing in loss
Nixon recorded nine total tackles (eight solo) and one pass defended in Sunday's 27-25 loss to the Vikings.
ANALYSIS
Nixon tied Eric Wilson as Green Bay's third-leading tackler in Sunday's loss, trailing both Javon Bullard and Edgerrin Cooper, who each recorded 11 stops. The 27-year-old corner from South Carolina has had the most productive season of his career, logging 82 total tackles, including 3.0 sacks, seven passes defended and three forced fumbles over 16 appearances. Nixon is expected to remain one of Green Bay's top defensive playmakers, whether he starts in the slot or at outside corner, in the Week 18 matchup against the Bears.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
No one envisioned Nixon becoming a threat in the return game when he joined the Packers last offseason, but that's exactly what happened, and he wound up being named an All-Pro returner. He also fared pretty well at his designated position of cornerback. Nixon will continue handling the return duties and working as a reserve defensive back in 2023.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Not interested in returning kicks
Nixon wants to focus on being a full-time cornerback and no longer return kicks in 2025, Rob Demovsky of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
Nixon has been Green Bay's primary punt returner since joining the team in 2022. His primary role was on special teams when he first signed with the Packers. However, his defensive snap count has risen consistently and Nixon hopes to establish himself as the top corner for the team in 2025. He'll enter free agency again in 2026 barring an offseason extension.
