Should the Green Bay Packers give Keisean Nixon a lifetime contract? I think many Packers fans would contemplate that idea. This man has single-handedly turned around the Packers’ special teams. Specifically on kick returns. In today’s game vs the Vikings Nixon took a kickoff return to the house. Social media reacted accordingly to the massive play.

Social media went wild after the play:
Keisean Nixon is legitimately looking one of the best kick returners we've seen in a LONG time.
Every time he touches the ball, it's a massive play.

Seriously, I ask again, how on earth did Amari Rodgers start this season as #Packers kickoff and punt returner over Keisean Nixon??
Better late than never.

Keisean Nixon has turned into one of most important big playmakers on the Green Bay Packers. He was limited in practice this week with injuries. Nixon had a groin injury that he suffered in the Packers’ Christmas Day game against the Miami Dolphins. It occurred after he returned one kickoff 95 yards. Nixon was considered game-time decisions after practice wrapped up on Friday. Per Matt Schniedman of the Athletic, Keisean Nixon was cleared to play against the Minnesota Vikings today. And he immediately made an impact.
