The Packers defense has taken significant strides from 2020. They’re not world-beaters statistically, but they’re getting the job done more often than not. Defensive tackle Kenny Clark is returning to form after a down year last season, Preston Smith is making plays, and Rashan Gary is blossoming into a star. The one player without a home this season has been Kevin King. Chandon Sullivan and Henry Back have rotated in as the Nickel and Dime corners respectively and cornerbacks Rasul Douglas and Eric Stokes have won the spots outside.
King has played solidly in spot duty through the season, but the most recent way the Packers have used him is as the Dime corner.
