Patriots CB Ranked in NFL Top 100

New England Patriots cornerback Christian Gonzalez continues to earn his well-deserved reputation as one of the NFL top defensive backs.

Now, he is being recognized as one of the league’s best players.

Gonzalez, on Thursday, was revealed as number 84 in the NFL Top 100 Players of 2025. In doing so, the Oregon product became the first Patriot to be named to this season’s rankings.

Though being names to the NFL’s list is intrinsically an honor within itself, Gonzalez’s resume may help to make the case that he may be ranked too low.
