Can newcomer Dallin Leavitt be an elite special teams player for Packers?

By the start of the regular season, there’s a chance that the Green Bay Packers will have three players on the 53-man roster with experience playing special teams for new coordinator Rich Bisaccia.

Cornerbacks Keisean Nixon and Rico Gafford have been in Green Bay for months. They were recently joined by safety Dallin Leavitt, who is quickly carving out a key role on special teams for Bisaccia and the Packers through his first week of training camp.

According to Wes Hodkiewicz of Packers.com, Leavitt has worked with the first-team groups on kickoff return, kickoff coverage, punt return and punt coverage through the first four practices of camp.
