Cisse (cramps) was a full participant at the Packers' practice Wednesday.
Cisse was dealing with cramps during the team's 39-22 loss to the Vikings in Week 1, but he now appears to be back to full health. The 21-year-old will likely operate in his starting role at cornerback opposite of Keisean Nixon on Sunday against the Jets.

Cisse (cramps) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Vikings.
Cisse logged one solo tackle prior to his exit, and he's being evaluated by medical staff to determine whether he can return. Carrington Valentine will take over at outside corner opposite Keisean Nixon for as long as Cisse is out of the game.

The Packers selected Cisse in the second round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 52nd overall.
Cisse (5-foot-11, 189 pounds) is something of a projection at the NFL level, still needing refinement in terms of route coverage and ball skills, but his combination of speed (4.41-second 40-yard dash) and frame promise intriguing upside as an outside corner. Though Cisse isn't necessarily a lock to push starting CBs Keisean Nixon and Carrington Valentine for more than rotational reps as a rookie, neither incumbent veteran played to a high enough level in 2025 to be considered truly entrenched. In his rookie year, it also wouldn't be surprising to see Cisse's athleticism earn him a role on special teams. Both Nixon and Valentine are entering the final years of their respective deals, so Cisse should have a clear path to a starting opportunity no later than 2027.
