While the Falcons sat around on the Tuesday trade deadline and did nothing, their Week 10 opponent got busy. The Indianapolis Colts, who the Falcons face in Berlin, Germany, on Sunday morning, stunned the NFL world by acquiring superstar cornerback Sauce Gardner.
Gardner was drafted fourth overall in the 2022 NFL draft and has been an elite cover corner ever since. He was named the Defensive Rookie of the Year, has made two Pro Bowls, and owns a 46.4 completion percentage against him this year.
Through seven games, Gardner has six passes defensed, which leaves him on track for the second most of his illustrious young career.
