But the\u00a0Green Bay Packers\u00a0have masterfully done that over the past two seasons, and the ultimate proof of that is how willing players are to help bring reinforcements in.<\/p>\n<p>After\u00a0Josh Jacobs said that he would recruit players to join him in Green Bay, former All-Pro player Keisean Nixon went into full recruiting mode on social media on Tuesday..<\/p>\n<p>The cornerback played his first three NFL seasons with the\u00a0Las Vegas Raiders, and he used that familiarity to\u00a0go after edge defender Maxx Crosby, trying to convince him to play for the Packers..<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CrosbyMaxx?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@CrosbyMaxx<\/a> Come Be Great Wit A Real Team My Boi\u2026 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/TTHUrOKzHM\">https:\/\/t.co\/TTHUrOKzHM<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&mdash; K9 (@keiseannixon) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/keiseannixon\/status\/1889398694140608549?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 11, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Right after, he also\u00a0made a case for wide receiver Davante Adams\u2014although they&#8217;ve never played together, because Adams went to the Raiders in the same offseason Nixon moved to Green Bay.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Yo Tae <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/tae15adams?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@tae15adams<\/a> pull bac Up<\/p>\n<p>&mdash; K9 (@keiseannixon) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/keiseannixon\/status\/1889400535494595047?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">February 11, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>A 27-year-old player, Nixon has been with the Packers since 2022. After signing two one-year deals, he reached a three-year extension last offseason, keeping him in Green Bay through 2026. A First-Team All-Pro kick returner in 2022 and 2023, Nixon became a starting boundary corner last season and played at a solid level.<\/p>\n<p>The Packers have $42 million in available cap space, and something around $22 million projected to be available for spending.<\/p>\n<p>Maxx Crosby and Davante Adams bring different circumstances for acquisition. Crosby is still a highly valuable player, so it would demand a significant trade (and probably a new contract) to get him.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile,\u00a0Adams is still under contract with the New York Jets, but the expectation is that\u00a0he will be traded or released\u00a0after the team decided to move on from quarterback Aaron Rodgers. Adams has no guarantees left on his deal, so even if it includes a lower-level trade, it would be possible to adjust his contract.<\/p>\n<p>The Packers had the youngest roster in football in each of the last two years and made the playoffs in both. The future might be bright, but there is an awareness on the front office and even on the roster that reinforcements are necessary\u2014and everyone is doing their parts.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Please enable JS and disable any ad blocker<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":13744,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-13743","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-green-bay-packers"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.7 -
