According to NFL Next Gen Stats, Kenny Clark was one of the NFL’s best defenders at generating pressure on third down in 2019.

The defensive line was a concern for the Green Bay Packers last season, but that had little to do with Kenny Clark.

Clark had a Pro Bowl season and, along with Za’Darius Smith and Preston Smith, played a crucial role when it came to rushing the passer.

According to NFL Next Gen Stats, Clark was one of only three players in the NFL to finish in the top five for both total third down pressures and also third down pressure rate.
