-- Green Bay Packers safety Ha Ha Clinton-Dix could be on the move before the trade deadline this week.
According to Albert Breer of MMQB.com on Sunday, Clinton-Dix is listed as one of the candidates likely to be moved before the Oct. 30 deadline, which falls on a Tuesday.
"It's not that he's fallen out of favor -- he's actually played every step on defense for Green Bay through six games," Breer wrote. "But he's in a contract year, and the Packers have some depth in the secondary to play with."
It was later confirmed by Jay Glazer on FOX that Clinton-Dix is, in fact, on the trade block.
The Packers allowed veteran safety Morgan Burnett to walk in free agency -- and eventually sign with the Pittsburgh Steelers -- and were left with evident holes in their secondary as a result. The duo of Clinton-Dix and Kentrell Brice on the back end hasn't been able to strike fear into any opposing offense and prevent them from throwing deep.
Clinton-Dix has been on his game for the most part, however. He not only leads all safeties in interceptions (11) since the start of the 2016 campaign, but he's dependable and hasn't missed a game since his rookie season.
The Packers could gain significant capital in return for their 2014 first-round pick, whether it's another safety in return, draft picks, an edge rusher or some form of a combination of those three. They have glaring needs at both safety and outside linebacker, especially if they were to shop Clinton-Dix elsewhere.
Kentrell Brice, Jermaine Whitehead and Raven Greene are the only other safeties currently on the Packers' roster, sans Clinton-Dix. They also have Josh Jones included in that group, who has played a grand total of four defensive snaps in the three games he's been active in this season.
