While the New York Jets brought in an accomplished passer this offseason, the division-rival Miami Dolphins countered by bringing in someone who is accomplished at defending the pass. Miami traded for six-time Pro Bowl cornerback Jalen Ramsey, pairing him up with four-time Pro Bowl cornerback Xavien Howard.
Teeming with star power, the Ramsey-Howard duo is generating plenty of hype. Some media members are even claiming it is a better duo than the one that ruled the AFC East (and arguably the entire league) in 2022: the Jets’ Sauce Gardner–D.J. Reed tandem.
ESPN’s Ryan Clark ranked Ramsey and Howard as the NFL’s best cornerback duo, placing Gardner and Reed in the third spot.
