Yes, he does. Ansley was McKinney's DB coach at Alabama.

Preston Smith now the only Packer over 30. Crazy that Kenny Clark about the same age as Yosh Nijman.
Keisean Nixon is back. 3Y, $18M. Hope it's backloaded and not a lot of guaranteed money. Good KR, iffy slot CB.
With how the KO return rules are changing, I wonder if his value changes.
Is that kickoff rule thing sure? Or was it just being talked about?
Run, I like Nixon in the slot a lot more than you do. I’m glad he’s back. Even so, I’m hoping my lingerie league hottie is gonna beat him out (not off) for that kick return job.
Nixon is a good tackler, but not great in coverage. Maybe he'll be a better fit in the new defense, but I have doubts.
It was so heartening to see a Packer defensive back willing to tackle. I’m on board.
Corey Ballantine signs with GB. Running it back with the *allentines!
I like that Nixon is absolutely fearless and plays with a good motor. I don't think he's good in coverage. His RAS breakdown shows up on tape: fast in straight line, not so agile.

I do think he could improve with better coaching, but I don't think you sign him and not give him competition. He's an All Pro KR, not an All Pro slot CB.
I'm fine with him coming back, although if it's 6M per year that feels pricey to me. It depends on how the money is structured; I suspect it has a team-friendly out after a year or two.
I know they now have plenty of corners - assuming Jaire and Stokes are healthy - but I wouldn't mind them drafting a guy who can play at slot CB. Younger, cheaper, more upside, etc.
Nixon ain’t the best slot corner on Fuck’s green earth, but he sure as fuck ain’t the hot chick who gets picked on wherever she walks, either. In other words, Nixon ain’t anything like the last two bums who manned the slot before him - abominable Mr. Hyde and “Chicken-shit” Sullivan.
Nixon is the Rock solid as a slot man.
Btw, I ain’t sure why I’m using the word “ain’t” a lot. I ain’t from the south; ain’t Black nor redneck.
The most accurate flow chart ever.
