The Woodstock Police Department sent out a tweet Sunday evening saying Nixon, 58, was last seen about 10 a.m. Saturday leaving his residence.
He was last seen in a gray 2011 Range Rover with Georgia tag CFP9010.
Police said Nixon left for a tee time at a local golf course, but never arrived.
He left wearing a black long-sleeve shirt, black sweatpants and a black baseball cap, with black Adidas shoes with white stripes.
Nixon joined the Braves during the team's worst to first season in 1991. He amazed fans with leaping catches and blazing stolen bases, a career record of 600. But he missed the Braves trip to the World Series in 1991 after failing a drug test.
