Last season, cornerback Keisean Nixon made jokes about wanting to get work on the offensive side of the ball. On Day 4 of training camp, Nixon took a step to make that a reality when he worked down on the offense’s side of the field for a period.
Questions remain about how many hats Nixon will be able to wear this season, though. In 2022, Nixon handled a half-season of kick return duties — which he earned First-Team All-Pro for — to go along with his second-string nickel corner role. With Eric Stokes (ankle, PUP) still out of practice, this has bumped Nixon into the starting nickel job during camp.
