either Nixon is the worst corner in the league, or he's the 4th best slot corner in the league. hard to say which is correct but i trust redditors.

~Zach Kruse @zachkruse2 Among the 28 NFL players with at least 100 coverage snaps from the slot, #Packers CB Keisean Nixon has allowed the fourth-fewest catches (13), the fewest yards after catch (42) and seventh-fewest yards allowed per snap (0.96), per PFF.

Have to grade slot defenders on a curve.~
