2. Kirksey Will Total Five Forced Turnovers
One of the most intriguing aspects of what Kirksey brings to the field is his playmaking and ability to force turnovers. He had two interceptions in seven games back in 2018 and had two forced fumbles back in 2017.
With the Packers and a healthy season, Kirksey is going to force five turnovers by himself. Whether those come from forced fumbles or interceptions, they are going to be huge for Mike Pettine’s defense.
Green Bay wanted a playmaker at inside linebacker and they got one. Kirksey is going to be the missing piece in the middle of the defense. Blake Martinez was a tackling machine, but the Packers are finally going to get a look at what a playmaker looks at the position.
