GREEN BAY − Green Bay Packers defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley appears to have settled on his secondary for his nickel defense that’s a lot different than the start of the season, but he still has a decision on whether to make rookie Edgerrin Cooper a full-timer at linebacker.
Rookie safeties Javon Bullard and Evan Williams have played so well that against the Arizona Cardinals they were essentially full-time players in nickel personnel, with Bullard in the slot and Williams at safety. They played together on all but one of the Packers’ 36 snaps in nickel in the 34-13 victory Sunday.
