Jalen Ramsey can shut down any wide receiver regardless of who the opposing quarterback is, but it’s a lot easier when the opposing quarterback isn’t particularly experienced or talented.
With the news that Tony Romo will be heading to the broadcast booth rather than to the Houston Texans, Ramsey’s job against Texans stud wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins just got easier. Hopkins is an electric wide receiver even with abysmal Texans quarterback play and would have been a major threat – even to Ramsey – with someone like Romo throwing him the ball.
Instead, Hopkins will have to make do with Tom Savage or, worse, a rookie quarterback.
