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
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 fumbles.

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
Market uncertain
Nixon may be priced out of the Packers' range in free agency, Rob Demovsky of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
A pending free agent, Nixon's market is difficult to evaluate given his dual role as an All-Pro kick returner and a solid option as a nickel cornerback. The 26-year-old played last season on a one-year contract worth $4 million, and while Nixon has said he would prefer to remain in Green Bay, it wouldn't be surprising if another team with a need in both areas presented him with a contract offer he couldn't turn down.
