Brandon Marshall: Darrelle Revis is the best cornerback in NFL history

The list of the greatest quarterbacks in NFL history includes names like Herb Adderley, Mel Blount, Darrell Green, Mike Haynes, Night Train Lane and Deion Sanders. But Jets receiver Brandon Marshall says his teammate tops them all.

Darrelle Revis is the greatest cornerback of all time, according to Marshall.

“I’ve been around great ones,” Marshall said on ESPN. “I practiced against Champ Bailey . . . Charles Tillman. Played against some great guys. I didn’t play against Deion, but Darrelle Revis is the best in the league. Ever.”

Told of those comments, Revis said he appreciated it.
