Packers Get Good News on 2-Time All-Pro Before Patriots Showdown

The Green Bay Packers got hopeful news on a key defensive starter ahead of their Week 9 showdown with the New England Patriots. Veteran cornerback Keisean Nixon will return to practice Friday, Nov. 6, after missing Thursday’s session with a groin injury. Packers head coach Matt LaFleur delivered the positive update just two days before Green Bay travels to New England, where Nixon could play an important role in slowing down quarterback Drake Maye. And the two-time All-Pro has an impressive streak that he’s looking to preserve.
