Speaking to the media on Friday, Los Angeles Chargers head coach Brandon Staley had high praise for the New York Jets defense leading up to their Week 9 matchup on Monday Night Football. Specifically, Staley had heavy praise for second-year cornerback Sauce Gardner.
“[The Jets] got good team speed,” started the Chargers head coach. “In the secondary, they play well together. Sauce Gardner, he’s turned into one of the top corners in the league. In terms of play style they play hard too. [They are a] well-coached team.”
The Chargers head coach would go on to specifically praise the All-Pro cornerback himself.
