GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — All-Pro kick returner Keisean Nixon is staying with the Green Bay Packers.
The Packers announced Wednesday they have re-signed Nixon and reserve tight end Tyler Davis. Terms weren’t disclosed.
Nixon, 25, made four starts at cornerback for the Packers last season but made his biggest impact on special teams.
He had an NFL-leading 1,009 yards on kickoff returns. He averaged 28.83 yards per kickoff return and had five returns of 50-plus yards. Nixon had the best single-season average ever by a Packer with at least 30 kickoff returns.
