New York Jets: Brian Poole is the NFL’s top CB so far according to Pro Football Focus

The New York Jets cornerbacks have predictably struggled so far this season but the lone bright spot amongst a very poor unit as been nickel corner Brian Poole.

Poole was signed away from the Atlanta Falcons in the offseason after three seasons spent down south. The 26-year-old originally entered the league back in 2016 as an undrafted rookie out of Florida and it didn’t take too long for him to start making an impact.

Due to a slew of injuries to the Falcons’ cornerbacks — including top corner Desmond Trufant — Poole was asked to play meaningful snaps early on in his career.
