Picks off Goff in Week 14
Nixon registered 10 tackles (three solo) and two pass defenses (including an interception) in Thursday's 34-31 loss to Detroit.
Analysis: Nixon tied Quay Walker as the Packers' second-leading tackler this past Thursday behind Isaiah McDuffie (15). Nixon logged his first interception of the season when he picked off Jared Goff early in the third quarter, which set the Packers up deep in Lions' territory and led to a six-yard touchdown run by Josh Jacobs three plays later. Through 13 regular-season games, Nixon has logged 65 tackles (42 solo), including 2.0 sacks, six pass defenses (including one interception) and two forced…read more

Tallies six stops in loss
Nixon recorded six total tackles (four solo) and one quarterback hit in Sunday's 24-14 loss to the Lions.
Analysis: The South Carolina product tied Edgerrin Cooper and Xavier McKinney for the second-most tackles in Sunday's loss, trailing Quay Walker's 12-stop performance. Nixon has now started all nine of Green Bay's games this season, recording 42 total tackles, including 2.0 sacks, and three passes defended. He's expected to continue making plays for the Packers' defense following the team's Week 10 bye.

Ready to rock
Nixon (hamstring) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Jaguars, Wes Hodklewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: Nixon practiced in a limited fashion both Wednesday and Thursday, but he upgraded to a full workload Friday, suggesting he's moved past his hamstring issue in time for Sunday's contest. Expect Nixon to start opposite Jaire Alexander as part of the Packers' top outside cornerback duo in Week 8.

Nursing hamstring injury
Nixon (hamstring) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
Analysis: Nixon played every single defensive snap during the Packers' win over the Texans this past Sunday, during which he logged five tackles (two solo). He may have tweaked his hamstring in the process, however, and he was limited during Wednesday's session as a result. Nixon will have two more chances to increase his practice participation and avoid an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against Jacksonville. Through the first seven games of the regular season, Nixon has logged 32 tackles (23…read more

Logs another sack in loss
Nixon recorded seven total tackles (five solo), including 1.0 sacks, while also forcing a fumble during Sunday's 31-29 loss to the Vikings.
Analysis: Nixon made a huge play in the fourth quarter to keep the Packers in Sunday's contest, logging a strip-sack on Sam Darnold that led to a two-play touchdown drive for Green Bay. However, Nixon struggled in coverage throughout Week 4's loss, giving up five receptions for 70 yards and one touchdown while being targeted six times. The South Carolina product is expected to remain Green Bay's top nickel corner as the team takes on the Rams in Week 5.

Nets first full sack
Nixon registered seven tackles (six solo) and a sack in Friday's 34-29 loss to the Eagles. He also returned one kick for 24 yards.
Analysis: Nixon finished a clear third among Packers cornerbacks in Week 1 snaps, and he also picked up the first full sack of his career. He signed a three-year contract with Green Bay over the offseason, so expect him to continue filling a key role -- both on defense and special teams.

Re-ups with Green Bay
The Packers are re-signing Nixon to a three-year, $18 million contract, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Nixon was named a first-team All-Pro in both 2022 and 2023 as a return man, but last season is when he saw his defensive role heightened, playing a career-high 809 snaps with the majority of those coming as the Packers' slot corner. He remained extremely effective on kickoff returns, averaging an NFL-best 26.1 yards per return while leading the league in total kickoff returns (30) and yards (782). On defense, Nixon racked up 80 tackles (59 solo), one interception and 0.5 sacks.

Another All-Pro season
Nixon notched 80 tackles (59 solo), a half sack, an interception and six pass deflections over 17 games in the 2023 season. He also returned 30 kicks for 782 yards and 14 punts for 95 yards.
Analysis: Nixon's exploits in the return game earned him first-team All-Pro honors for a second straight year, and he was also more involved on the defensive side of the ball than he was in any of his first four seasons as a professional. Nixon will be a free agent this offseason and figures to garner interest from several teams, but the Packers will also presumably be interested in keeping him in Green Bay.

Big night in big win
Nixon had 11 tackles (seven solo) and a sack in Sunday's 48-32 wild-card victory over the Cowboys.
Analysis: The first-team All-Pro kick returner did not run a kick back Sunday, but he did match the career-high 11 stops he made in Week 17. One way or another he will be key in Green Bay's upcoming matchup with San Francisco, and just how big a role he will fill will likely depend on the availability -- or lack thereof -- of top cornerback Jaire Alexander (ankle).

Ready to go for Week 18
Nixon (quadriceps) was a full participant at the Packers' practice Thursday.
Analysis: Nixon was considered limited at Wednesday's walkthrough, but Thursday's session erases any doubt about his availability for Sunday's regular-season finale against the Bears. The dual-threat cornerback has made 18 tackles while also compiling 86 kick-return yards over the last two contests.

Limited Wednesday
Nixon (quadriceps) was considered to be a limited participant at Green Bay's walkthrough Wednesday.
Analysis: Nixon was a limited participant all week prior to playing in the Packers' 33-10 win over the Vikings in Week 17, compiling a career-high 11 tackles in the contest, so Wednesday's status isn't a cause for concern quite yet. The cornerback will look to return to log a full practice prior to Sunday's significant matchup with the Bears, though he may not have to in order to appear in the contest.

Career-high tackles in win
Nixon finished Sunday's 33-10 win over the Vikings with a team-high 11 tackles (seven solo), including a half-sack. He also returned one kick for 23 yards.
Analysis: Not only was it the first sack of Nixon's career -- shared with Devonte Wyatt -- but he also registered double-digit tackles in a game for the first time. Nixon took advantage of the one-game suspension of Jaire Alexander, as the former drew the start alongside Carrington Valentine. Nixon is up to 76 tackles (56 solo), six passes defended and one interception over 16 games this season.

Good to go versus Bucs
Nixon (quadriceps) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Wes Hodklewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: Nixon was a limited participant in practice all week and is set to suit up for Sunday's NFC matchup, during which he'll play his usual roles as both the slot cornerback and as the primary kick returner. He has already set a career high with 57 tackles in 13 games this season in addition to logging 647 kick return yards.

Starts week limited
Nixon (quadriceps) was a limited participant at Wednesday's estimated practice.
Analysis: Nixon once again contributed both on defense as the slot cornerback and on special teams as the team's kick returner. He finished Monday's loss against the Giants with four tackles (three solo), while returning a kickoff for 25 yards. Nixon's practice participation over the course of the week will better indicate his availability for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.

Huge interception in upset
Nixon recorded five tackles (three solo) and one interception in Sunday's 27-19 victory over the Chiefs.
Analysis: Nixon came up big for the Packers' defense with a fourth-quarter interception, which led to a field-goal and eventual win. The 26-year-old has now tallied 50 or more defensive snaps and four or more tackles in the past four games. In addition, the return specialist also added 60 kick-return yards to his league-leading 622 on the year.

Remains in versatile role
Nixon made seven tackles (six solo) in Sunday's 23-20 victory over the Chargers. He also returned two kickoffs for 60 yards and two punts for two yards.
Analysis: Nixon played over 80 percent of the defensive snaps for a third straight game, and he also made a mark in the return game. Nixon was named to the 2022 All-Pro Team as a kick returner, and he is trending toward repeating that feat. With one game to play in Week 11, he leads all players with 562 kick-return yards and is averaging 26.8 yards per kick return -- a mark that tops all players who have taken back at least eight kicks.

Sees action in all phases
Nixon had one carry for 11 yards, made three solo tackles, deflected a pass and returned a kick for 24 yards in Sunday's 18-17 victory over the Saints.
Analysis: Nixon did not start on defense for the first time this season, but he did see action in all three phrases and recorded his first career touch on the offensive side of the ball. It's unlikely he gets more involved in that area -- particularly when the Packers are back at full strength -- but it is at least an option.

Nets eight Week 1 stops
Nixon had eight tackles (seven solo) in Sunday's 38-20 victory over the Bears. He also returned two kicks for 55 yards.
Analysis: The All-Pro return man was not used on punt returns, but that's because he has carved out a key role in Green Bay's secondary, as he was one of three cornerbacks to open Sunday's contest on the field. Nixon may not have as many chances to score as he did last season, but he remains an important player for the Packers.

Busy at cornerback spot
Nixon saw action in Saturday's 19-15 preseason victory over the Seahawks.
Analysis: Nixon did not make a mark in the box score, but he started at cornerback for the third time in three preseason contests. The All-Pro return man curiously did not return a kick nor a punt during the exhibition season, but he figures to be back there in some capacity when the regular season gets underway.

Will return to Green Bay
The Packers and Nixon (concussion) agreed Monday on a one-year deal with a max value of $6 million, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Nixon signed with the Packers in March of 2022 and reunited with special-teams coordinator Rich Bisaccia, who coached Nixon during his previous stint in Las Vegas. Nixon, an undrafted product out of South Carolina, periodically saw some work on defense with Green Bay, totaling 23 tackles, an interception and a forced fumble across 276 defensive snaps, but he made his mark as a return man after Amari Rodgers was waived in November. Nixon totaled 1,009 kick-return yards, 140 punt-return yards and…read more

Evaluated for concussion in Week 18
Nixon is being evaluated for a concussion Sunday against the Lions.
Analysis: Nixon took a big hit at the end of a fourth-quarter kickoff return in the season finale. The 25-year-old return man showed promise in 2022, scoring a kick return touchdown in Week 17 against the Vikings while adding numerous other lengthy returns.

Ready to roll Sunday
Nixon (groin) is active for Sunday's game against the Vikings, Mike Spofford of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: Nixon, who departed last weekend's matchup versus Miami due to a groin injury, is now in line to play and operate as Green Bay's kick and punt returner New Year's Day against Minnesota. The 25-year-old has thus far provided the Packers with a spark on special teams this year, something the team has lacked the past few seasons.

Questionable for Week 17
Nixon (groin) has been deemed questionable for Sunday's game against the Vikings, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: Nixon was forced out with a groin injury and did not return during last week's win over the Dolphins. He then did not participate in each practice of Week 17 prep, though it appears he'll still have a chance to play. Nixon has provided a jolt to Green Bay since taking over as the team's primary returner, making numerous big plays, including a 93-yard kick return early in the first quarter last Sunday. Should Nixon be ruled inactive prior to this Sunday's 4:25 pm E.T. kickoff, rookie wideout…read more

Won't return Sunday
Nixon (groin) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Dolphins.
Analysis: Nixon suffered a groin injury in the second quarter of Sunday's game after providing a spark for Green Bay as a kick returner early in the matchup. Romeo Doubs will likely continue to fill in as the Packers' return man down the stretch, while Nixon's next chance to suit up will be Jan. 1 against the Vikings.

Managing groin injury
Nixon is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Dolphins due to a groin injury.
Analysis: Nixon had a 93-yard kick return ahead of the Packers' first offensive possession Sunday, but he apparently sustained a groin injury in the second quarter. It's unclear whether he'll be able to return, but Romeo Doubs took over as Green Bay's kick returner late in the second quarter.

Delivers again in return game
Nixon had three solo tackles in Monday's 24-12 victory over the Rams. He also returned three kicks for 95 yards and two punts for 36 yards in the game.
Analysis: Nixon continues to be revelation for the Packers, as he played every defensive snap Monday night and again made an impact in the return game. He now finds himself second in the league in kick return yards, and although he has taken back just six punts, he ranks second league-wide with an average of 15.3 yards per punt return.

Makes mark in victory
Nixon had two assisted tackles and an interception in Sunday's 28-19 victory over the Bears. He also returned four kicks for 102 yards in the game.
Analysis: The interception was the first of Nixon's career, and it came late in the fourth quarter and ensured the Packers walked away with the win. He also racked up over 100 return yards for the fourth game in a row. Nixon will presumably continue fielding kicks after the Packers' Week 14 bye, and he figures to remain part of the defensive game plan for as long as fellow cornerback Eric Stokes (ankle/knee) is sidelined.

Makes key plays in victory
Nixon made seven tackles (six solo) and forced a fumble in Sunday's victory over the Buccaneers.
Analysis: Nixon was pressed into duty Sunday after fellow cornerback Jaire Alexander left the game early with a groin injury, and he made his presence felt, generating a turnover and finishing third on the team in tackles -- not to mention covering a punt at the opponent's one-yard line. If Alexander is unable to go in Week 4, expect Nixon to again slot in as the Packers' third cornerback.

Nixon (ankle) has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Bengals, according to Paul Gutierrez of ESPN.com.
Analysis: Nixon headed to the sidelines last Sunday against the Chiefs and couldn't recover in time, as evidenced by the fact that he was unable to practice throughout the week.
