Green Bay Packers CB Eric Stokes’ second NFL season didn’t exactly go as planned. The former first round pick out of Georgia struggled on the field and couldn’t match his strong rookie performance. Then, Stokes suffered season-ending knee and ankle injuries that forced him to miss the final eight games of the season.
The Packers will need Stokes to get back on track in 2023 and return to the level of play he showed throughout his rookie season. That kind of performance would help make the Packers pass defense an even stronger unit in 2023.
Stokes has the raw athletic ability to be a good cover corner in the NFL.
