A key matchup in the Jets Week 16 game against the Jaguars will be between Jacksonville's QB Trevor Lawrence and the Green & White's star CB duo of Sauce Gardner and D.J. Reed.
Lawrence spoke highly of the pair leading up to Thursday's prime time battle at MetLife Stadium. Lawrence, the No. 1 selection in the 2021 NFL Draft, has been red-hot with 14 touchdowns and 1 interception in the last 6 games.
"Both of them are playing great and they're really sticky in coverage," Lawrence said., referring to Gardner and Reed. "They don't give up easy stuff. … On the outside, they have the guys to match you up, to play man, to press you, to cover you down the field, all those things. We got a challenge, and those guys are playing great, they're playing with a lot of confidence and they've had a really good year."
Jaguars head coach Doug Pederson shared similar sentiments about Gardner, the No. 4 selection in April's NFL Draft.
"It's the reason why they took him so high, obviously," Pederson said. "You see his length, you see his speed on tape, he is and will be a really good corner in this league. Again, you see why the Jets took him."
Gardner, who leads the NFL with 16 pass defenses, returned the compliment of the second-year QB and Jacksonville's offense, which ranks No. 6 overall.
"They have a pretty good offense," the Cincinnati product said. "…Good quarterback in Trevor Lawrence. They have a lot of good things going on with offensive side of the ball."
