Green Bay Packers cornerback Keisean Nixon also excels as the team's return specialist, but he's no longer interested in performing double duties

Green Bay Packers cornerback Keisean Nixon sounded off on his role with the team following their wild-card exit in the NFL playoffs.

Nixon, a two-time All-Pro returner, saw fewer opportunities with the new kickoff rules and would like to exclusively play cornerback.

The Packers got off to a nightmare start when Keisean Nixon fumbled the opening kickoff after taking a huge hit by Philadelphia's Oren Burks. Three plays later the Eagles scored a touchdown and seized control early at home. Nixon spoke Monday about the costly fumble and had a rather honest admission about that big hit by Burks.

Keisean Nixon was an All-Pro kick returner in 2022 and 2023 for the Packers, but that's not how he sees things playing out for him in 2025 and beyond.
