Veteran cornerback Darrelle Revis went into camp last year without a chance to fully prepare, He had surgery on his wrist in the offseason and he couldn’t jam receivers at the line of scrimmage to start the season. Revis depends on that jam so he was out of sorts to start the year. <p>He did get better as the year went on but when you look at the whole year, it wasn’t good. The Revis Island thing is over but I think he still has a couple of years as a decent cornerback left. He especially has a lot of knowledge that you would want him to pass down to a young kid coming up.</p> <p>Cordrea Tankersley is bump-and-run CB that could benefit for having Revis around. He doesn’t have a lot of interceptions but he also doesn’t allow ball to be caught on him. The way he holds guys up at the line of scrimmage, Tankersley could very well be the next Revis.</p> <p>So there is no better player for Revis to take Lattimore under his wing show the ropes. Next thing you know, a Lattimore Island will be in New York as the Jets have a new shutdown cornerback. That would make the defense better as we see what QB Christian Hackenberg does with the offense.</p>. CB. Clemson. Cordrea Tankersley. 6. player. 30
