Safety Ha Ha Clinton-Dix is turning into a valuable defensive contributor for the Green Bay Packers. After playing all 16 games (and starting 10) as a rookie, he hasn't shown very many signs of inexperience this season.

Head coach Mike McCarthy said Clinton-Dix has made the second-year leap.

Via the Packers' official Twitter account:

Clinton-Dix has clearly avoided a sophomore slump. He has started every single game and leads the team with 93 tackles (76 solo). The former first-round draft pick also has two interceptions, two sacks and a forced fumble.

Between Clinton-Dix and rookie cornerbacks Damarious Randall and Quinten Rollins, the Packers have the makings of a dominant secondary for years to come.
