The Packers have exercised Ha Ha Clinton-Dix‘s fifth-year option, a source tells Ian Rapoport of NFL.com (on Twitter). The news was expected.
In 2016, Clinton-Dix played in every defensive snap for the Packers and picked off five passes en route to his first career Pro Bowl selection. The advanced metrics at Pro Football Focus ranked him as the 20th best safety in the NFL and he should only improve going forward.
The safety is now scheduled to earn $5.597MM in 2018, a sum that is guaranteed for injury only. In this upcoming season, he’ll be under contract at a super reasonable $2.653MM cap number. According to Over The Cap, there are 55 safeties in the NFL who will earn more than Clinton-Dix in 2017.
Look for the pack to extend Clinton Dix like Daniels and Bakhtiari
Clinton dix and Josh Jones are going to form a scary safety duo for a lot of years in packer land.
Yep. Not to mention watching the development of King into hopefully a shutdown corner in the mold of Sherman.
Right….. because Josh Jones has already proved he can play at this level. Damn I forgot about that
