Jay Feely: Tyrann Mathieu, Juan Thornhill among NFL’s best safety tandems

During the CBS broadcast between the Denver Broncos and the New York Jets in Week 3, CBS Sports announcers Spero Dedes and Jay Feely took a moment to praise Broncos safeties Justin Simmons and Kareem Jackson as both safeties have one interception in the early going of the 2021 season and were both playing well against the Jets.

The CBS telecast put up a graphic called “Jay Feely’s Best Safety Tandem.” The graphic included four tandems, one of them being Kansas City’s Tyrann Mathieu and Juan Thornhill.

CBS’ Jay Feely put together his list of the top safety duos, which included Juan Thornhill.
