NFL ERUPTS: Ex-Receiver INSISTS Packers Dump Keisean Nixon for Myles Garrett in BOLD Trade Scenario!
Cheeseheads, prepare for a frenzy! A former NFL receiver has just dropped a trade bomb on Green Bay: ship cornerback/kick returner Keisean Nixon to the Cleveland Browns in exchange for edge-rushing phenom Myles Garrett! Is this a visionary move that could vault the Packers into Super Bowl contention, or a disastrous overreach that would cripple their special teams and secondary?!
Nixon Out, Garrett In?! The Trade That Could Make or Break Green Bay!
While no credible source has reported this hypothetical trade, the mere suggestion of sending Nixon to Cleveland for Garrett has sent the NFL rumor mill into overdrive.
Is Nixon Expendable, or a Hidden Gem?
Keisean Nixon is currently on a three-year, $18 million contract[3]. The Packers re-signed Nixon to that deal in March of 2024[4][5][7]. In 2025, Nixon is set to have a cap hit of $6,841,666, and would earn a cash total of $4,675,000[1]. Trading or cutting Nixon would leave the Packers with a dead cap value of $4,333,334[1]. Despite these figures, one pundit has declared Nixon to be the team’s best contract, especially if Nixon can be a weapon on both defense and special teams[3].
### Garrett to Green Bay: A Pass-Rushing Dream?
Although there is no confirmation as to what it would take to acquire the defensive end, he is set to earn $23.1 million in 2025 and $19.7 million in 2026[6].
### Gutekunst’s Gamble: Super Bowl Now, or Sustained Success?
Acquiring Garrett would undoubtedly elevate the Packers’ pass rush to elite status and significantly improve their Super Bowl chances. However, it would also mean parting ways with a valuable player in Nixon.
Could this trade propel the Packers to the Super Bowl, or would it create holes in other areas of the roster that ultimately derail their championship aspirations? The debate is officially on!
