The Green Bay Packers are ranked third in the NFL at defensive turnover differential.

The Packers defense falls just behind Pittsburgh and New England in the differential category so far this season. Over the first seven weeks of the regular season, Green Bay sits at +6. They have a total of 13 takeaways, which include eight interceptions and five fumble recoveries.

Third year cornerback Kevin King is leading the charge for the Packers in the interception category with three on the season. King is a big corner standing at 6’3” and 200 pounds. He was selected by the Packers in the 2017 NFL Draft in the second round.

Other playmakers, such as rookie safety Darnell Savage, second year corner Jaire Alexander, and free agent signee Adrian Amos (Safety), have contributed with an interception as well.

The Packers defense may fall in the bottom half in yards allowed through the air and on the ground, but they make up for it with their ability to create turnovers. Their playmaking secondary will be licking their lips with a rusty Matt Moore starting under center for the first time in two years.
