What's going on, Packer fans? Welcome back to another episode of the Pack-A-Day podcast. I'm your host, Andy Herman. You can follow me on Twitter at Andy Herman NFL. Thanks so much for being here today. Really excited about today's episode. We're going to be going over Kishon Nixon. And no, we're not going to be going over Kishon Nixon, the all-pro kick returner. We're not going to be going over Kishon Nixon, the punt returner. We're not going to be going over Keishon Nixon, the all-pro kick returner. We're not going to be going over Keishon Nixon, the punt returner.

0:39.3

We're not going to be going over Keishon Nixon, the special teams ace.

0:42.4

We're going to be going over Keeshaun Nixon, the defensive back, the corner, the slot guy, the star, whatever you want to call it,

0:48.4

that's what we're going to be going over today. Because as of right now, we don't a million percent know exactly what's going on with Eric Stokes when asked about sort of the slot nickel star position in this off season.

0:59.1

The Packers have basically said that Keeshaun Nixon is going to get the opportunity to win that spot.

1:12.5

snaps in the slot in 2023, even to the point being that when Eric Stokes comes back, I don't know

1:19.3

Now, a lot can happen.

1:35.3

There's a lot of different possibilities.

1:37.3

It wouldn't surprise me in certain games if Green Bay wanted to go with Jire Alexander in the slot,

1:42.3

especially if Justin Jefferson or AJ Brown are going to play a Alexander in the slot, especially if Justin Jefferson

1:44.2

or A.J. Brown are going to play a ton in the slot, whoever they're playing against, obviously.

1:48.5

Like, if they're going to see a ton of a specific really good wide receiver in the slot, like,

1:52.6

do you want Jairair to move in there? Sure. And then in that situation, do you see Rizuel and Stokes

1:56.7

on the outside? Because Kishon's not as much of an outside corner. Yeah, I think there's very much

2:01.9

a world in where those opportunities exist. But if you're talking right now, the base nickel
